Win 10laptop had Firefox installed and working. Suddenly stopped after some windows updates. I have Uninstalled several times, both vanilla and using IOBIT program. Deleted the program file folder, and the local apps profile. Won't start in safe mode either. I don't even see anything in task manager when clicking. No error messages.

However.....tried installing developer version and it works fine!

Any thoughts?

Thanks!

Running latest version of Thunderbird. Have 2 email accounts. Open Thunderbird and the secondary one receives, sends all emails and all folders are listed and can be viewed. However, about 2 days ago, the main email account can display all folders and everything can be read. However, the INBOX folder says there are 26 messages, but none can be viewed. When clicking Get Messages, this error message pops up: The current operation in "inbox" did not succeed. The mail server for account xxxxxxxx.net responded: UID FETCH failed. After reaching out for help, I have done the following, but nothing works: Tried Repair Folder, deleted all .msf files, restarted Tbird many, many times including rebooting computer. My current settings are: Thunderbird Version 102.1.2 (64 bit). Previous versions 91.12.0 & 91.2.1 IP Address: 69.127.143.28. Using System Proxy Settings, SMTP Server Port 465, IMAP Mail Server Port 993, SS/TLS, Normal Password. This is Windows 10 Desktop unit. The last thing I wanted to do was uninstall Thunderbird and then reinstall, as I am getting mixed messages regarding losing all previous emails, calendar settings, etc. Any reasonable help would be greatly appreciated.

Hello! I've changed my laptop and installed TB on it. And I couldn't auto collect all the emails from inbox/outbox. WHY?? ( I thoung that new versions of TB would have this function by default in default Address Book, but no. :o( And even no addons to collect email. WHY? And how to do it (collect emails from all the mails automatically)? thnx.

Have odd problems with Thunderbird which seem impossible to correct. Can I download current version over the top without losing my records ie mail and address book

Witam Potrzebuję całkowicie usunąć program Thunderbird wraz z wszystkimi jego składnikami . Będę instalował go ponownie i potrzebne mi jest całkowite wyczyszczenie wszystkich danych w programie. Deinstalacja usuwa tylko program ale po ponownej instalacji wszystko wraca do poprzednich ustawień. Proszę o pomoc. Dziękuję

I have an existing Thunderbird account on my Windows 11 PC. I am now trying to open and access this same account on another PC with Windows 10.This is the message that keeps on appearing:

Unable to login in at server. Probably wrong configuration,username or password.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

My Thunderbird upgraded and my 1 of my 2 emails accounts stopped working due to a change in password security. (GMAIL). I saved my profile and unistalled TB and installed a older version hoping this would work . However after copying and paste my old profile over the new profile it stated "profile data were no longer compatible with the older version and to create a new profile".

I did not want to do this. So I kept my old profile uninstalled again and reinstalled the latest TB back again only to find when i copy and paste my old profile it now is no longer compatable with this version either .

How do i get my profile to work again? (even if it means just the one email account works).

I was wondering if you were aware of any projects in the computer industry to come up with a new PC O/S since windows has become so unfriendly and autocratic with win 10 & I imagine 11 as well? As you are one of the more important players in the home and business computer world, I figure you folks would know much more than I, and know it way before I do. I do not want to get another windows machine. I had to fight it to get your superior web browser to be and stay the default browser over something called "edge", as an example. Us Boomers have been buying PC's for 40+ years and the software too. Then we choose what we want installed and ignore the rest. And we never heard of buying a program then also paying rent to some overlord. Talking to friends of similar age, this is a huge reason PC sales are falling. Win 10 &11 were such a traumatic shock to us. My wife (age 72) was so angry she went out and purchased Apple notebook, ipad and iphone and gave her windoze junk to the trash man after a thorough scrubbing. At age 72 she undertook learning a new O/S to get away from MSFT. (I try hard not to get her real angry!)

Thank you in advance for any help you may provide. I think quantum computers are a few years out yet, so there is a need.

Hello, I am a long time user and recently hit the 100% Quota Level so I can no longer receive emails. I have deleted thousands of emails but it still says 100%. I have deleted as many emails as possible at this point, but email is very important and I need to receive emails!

• Can I download the emails to my HDD?
• If I convert from IMAP to POP will that remove the limitations and will I lose the emails stored

  on the Server?

• How can I reset the Level?
• How will I receive your answer if I am locked out?

thanks -

Upgraded from Ubuntu 20.04 LTS to Ubuntu 22.04 LTS. This forcibly converted Firefox to a "Snap" version. The new version won't find or use any of the old profile information. So I've lost all my passwords.

about:profiles shows only the newly created default profile.

Old profiles still exist in '~/.mozilla/firefox/####.default-release' but about:config does not find them.

Read https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/recover-user-data-missing-after-firefox-update Not helpful.

I can find old versions of login-backup.json and key4.db. , but they seem to be out of date.

Unfortunately I had to get a new laptop and it's Windows 11. I want to load Firefox as my browser (I've been using it almost since it's inception) thru the Microsoft store. I do NOT want to activate Edge which is preloaded and want's everything but my bloodtype to set up Edge so that I can go get Firefox. I've pulled up article after article that it can now be directly loaded from the Microsoft store but when I open the store and search for Firefox... it's nowhere to be found. I really don't wanna start up the edge. Anyone know what's going on with this? Or is Microsoft being it's usual sneaky self and forcing me to activate edge and then maybe firefox will show up in the store? Hopefully someone will answer this quickly as I sit here waiting to continue my setup. Thanks!!

I'm currently using a Windows 10 desktop computer most of the time, but will need to use a Windows 11 laptop for research travel several times over the next several months.

Will it be possible to copy my profile from Win 10 to the Win 11 computer, use the Win 11 computer for a few weeks, and then copy the profile back to the Win 10 computer?

Or is there something different about Thunderbird working with Win 10 or Win 11 that would keep this from working for me?

win 10 for me tb 102 does not work.........authentication error..........revert to 9.10/12 works perfectly. sadly 102 insists on updating despite reg edit solution by toadhall "update by administrator disabled" shows in pref..........have to uninstall 102 and reinstall every 2-3 days firefox set to me choose what to install

my other computer (win10) set for me to choose install............no problem

Hi Firefox support

I am using Nuance Dragon Professional and trying to install the Dragon extension into Firefox. This is because I am disabled and my hands do not work well See this link https://dnsriacontent.nuance.com/13/setup/ffinstall.html?lang=ENX&browser=firefox

When I hit the install the extension button on the screen nothing happens

I did check to see if this extension was in the Mozilla Firefox extension library and no success

I can make this work with Google Chrome but I would prefer to stick with Firefox Chris Gullett - cg@printstar.biz
