I updated to version 99.0.1 but it keeps on going back to 98.0.2. Things I had tried:

• Uninstall and reinstall Firefox
• Refresh in about:support
• Use a new profile

I think it is happening daily around the same time. Suddenly my pages in Firefox will stop loading. Then I need to close and reopen it. And then it will prompt me to start with a new profile because I am using an older version. On check, my Firefox had been reverted to version 98.0.2. Then I have to update and then only I can change back the profile.

Every week, for work, I need to download at least one large video file from Microsoft OneDrive and then upload it to YouTube. (These are MP4s in the range of 200 - 800 MB.) For the last couple of months, maybe longer, the download keeps failing in Firefox. When I switch to Chrome, the same MP4 downloads with no problem.

Any idea what might be going on? Usually the file starts downloading just fine; I see the bar gradually filling up in the notification area, but then it suddenly stops and says "Failed." If I retry, the same thing just happens again.

I'm not using any kind of download manager (that I'm aware of), just relying on Firefox's default download behavior when I click on the "Download" link on the OneDrive web page (sample URL: https://olucdenver-my.sharepoint.com/personal/YADA_YADA/_layouts/15/onedrive.aspx?id=LONG_QUERY_STRING_HERE).

Thanks in advance for any help you can provide!

Hello,

Whilst helping a friend recover data after she killed her laptop, my Windows 10 will no longer boot.

I have tried the steps in various posts to move my profile to another TB installation without success. The version number on the crashed machine is 68.7.

Can anybody suggest how to recover my email? The only thing I can see when I move the profile is some of my email account names, but none of my local folders.

I hope to fix the crashed PC, but I need access to my past email.

I have just freshly installed a windows 7 on my computer which I have some old programs which won't run on windows 10. I am trying to download firefox with windows explorer which comes with windows 7. It seems I can not download anything. I try to download the firefox I get a message, The security certificate presented by this website has expired or is not yet valid. I downloaded once the firefox installer but in the middle of the installation I get a message OOPs something went wrong and it won't install. what is going on?

My PC crashed and lost most programs including Thunderbird. I am logged in to my account and downloaded and installed the program. However in the "Set up your existing email address" I get an error message.

I have a MacPro which runs three different OSes. I want to boot to any of them and be completely current with my email, so the goal is to locate the Thunderbird Profile to a neutral, non-boot drive that is always available. I have an internal drive in one of my drive bays that is perfect for this. I tried to follow the directions for changing the "profiles.ini" file on my current boot volume, but even with that done, it still makes a new folder. I just want Thunderbird to quit referencing the old location and start referencing the new one. I thought I had updated the "profiles.ini" properly, and, having deleted the actual profile folder within the Profiles folder inside it, it still wanted to create a new one with all the default stuff empty. So it obviously was not looking to the Profile folder I had copied earlier to the neutral drive, even though I put the path in the .ini file and changed the path under [Profile0] and set IsRelative to 0. Should I also have changed the path to the [Install712DAF5A23ABECDC] portion of this .ini file to the new one and unlocked it?

Is there a way to ALSO have the "profiles.ini" file and all the apparatus around it on the neutral volume so that EACH version of Thunderbird, no matter which OS is currently booted, accesses this info from there?

I wish this kind of instruction was explained better.

Hi All,

I know that the first answer to this is going to be "ask your RMM provider" but...

I use Datto RMM and they have an integration that can install and keep TB up to date with the latest patches. I have TB installed in a stock system image that I use (v60 something I think) for one particular customer.

Unbeknownst to me, for the past few weeks RMM has been complaining that the downloaded TB installer "did not pass verification checks for its digital signature." and it had been failing to install updates. I'm still trying to find out exactly what that means, I understand what I says, but not why it didn't pass.

Up to this point it was identifying the currently installed version as "Mozilla Thunderbird (x86 en-US)" without giving a specific version number. I assume it was pulling this info from windows directly although I'm not sure and will ask Datto support.

From the RMM logs I see that a couple of days ago it stopped complaining about the digital signature and "upgraded" using the installer from https://download.mozilla.org/?product=thunderbird-91.8.1-SSL&os=win&lang=en-US.

The following day, it started reporting that the installed version was "Currently installed: Mozilla Thunderbird 38.5.0 (x86 en-US)" and I started getting support calls as "all of my email has vanished".

Uninstalling 38.5.0 and re-installing with a cleanly downloaded copy of 91.8.1 resolves the issue.

So, can anyone shed any light on what might have been going on here. Has there been a problem with the code signing cert?, was this a supply chain attack?, did someone accidentally upload a 7 year old build of the installer?

I think my problem is resolved but I would really like to be able to work out what the heck happened.

Anyone got any insight?

I lost my arrows on my scrollbar again after an update early last month. I tried adding lines to the gtk.css config files with no success unlike I've been successful doing in the past. It appears they are gone forever unless I can find another way to get them back. I noticed that the scrollbar arrows are gone on only Firefox and Thunderbird. As mentioned, this has happened in the past after some updates but in the past I was able to edit the gtk.css files in both gtk-2.0 and gtk-3.0 to get them back. Is there anything else I can try. I'm using the latest version of Ubuntu (Pop OS to be specific) and the arrows to the scrollbars disappeared around April 2nd for both Firefox and Thunderbird. I didn't notice any other applications where the arrows to the scrollbars disappeared. Is there something else I can try and a way to prevent this from happening in the future. This seems to be a common problem that happens every time there is an update.

I just installed Thunderbird 91.8.1 and would like to migrate pst files generated by Outlook 2010.

It somewhat works - if I do "Tools --> Import --> Mail --> Next" and select Outlook, Thunderbird starts importing apparently all the pst files that are present on the PC, without allowing which ones to import to be explicitly specified.

Is there a way to specify which specific pst files are to be imported?

Today, I am very dissapointed to report, I will be leaving Thunderbird after 20 years... Because it does not work with Microsoft Exchange Server. I am soooo dissapointed!

I upgraded from Thunderbird 52 to version 91. Even though all the account settings appear to be correct, I can neither send nor receive mail. What the -- is wrong?

My windows 10 took a powder and had to have it repaired The thing that i may not be able to get are the add ons and the address book that i had on it they are installing anew hard drive but were able to back up some of the files and such.
