I frequently have to clear history to persuade my browser to connect to selected sites. This deletes my preferred sites "keys" (e.g. bank, ins., etc.) Why does this happen? I use a macbook air with an M2 chip.

I am experiencing an issue with my email account in Thunderbird. I noticed that I can no longer receive emails, so I removed and reinstalled Thunderbird. After reconfiguring my email account with the following settings, I received a yellow warning message.

At first, I suspected it was a password issue, so I reset my password in GoDaddy, but the same issue persists.

Hi I am using the latest version of Thunderbird.

I have an extensive archive of historic emails organised by past year which have been exported to local folders on my PC. In the past a search for old email content, for example from a specific individual, has brought up a list of all the emails in the Thunderbird account both stored in the Thunderbird folder hierarchy and also in the offline files and short extracts of these have been shown. Clicking on one of these has always recovered the full email body content for that specific email from wherever it was stored.

More recently I am now finding that the body of the emails in the offline folders are no longer shown and the only way I have been able to view that email is to note the date and then physically scroll through the offline folder for that date.

Please advise.

I'm running Win10 and Thunderbird 128.6.0esr. I wanted to move my profile from C: to a different drive (in my case, the D drive). I Googled and got lots of hits, both on the Thunderbird support site and elsewhere, that seemed to indicate to me that some users were seemingly having issues getting this task completed.

Also, looking around in my Windows "AppData" subdirectories, I noticed that there are actually two "profile" directories.

For example: C:\Users\xxx\AppData\Local\Thunderbird\Profiles\abcdefgh.default C:\Users\xxx\AppData\Roaming\Thunderbird\Profiles\abcdefgh.default

Many of the instructions I found were dated from two years ago or more and only discussed moving one profile directory (the one in "Roaming") and I wondered if, in the interim, there's been an addition of a second profile directory that wasn't being addressed in the "old" instructions I was finding on the Web.

So instead of trying any of the suggested procedures I decided to try something else that seemed to be simpler and more straightforward to me. After performing the process I decided to try, testing seems to indicate it works just fine. However, I thought I'd leave this message to ask if there's some issue that can result by doing it as I did.

All I did was to create a new directory on my D drive to hold to two profile directories. Inside this new directory, I created two subdirectories called "AppData-Local" and "AppData-Roaming" to hold the two respective profile directories. With Thunderbird closed, I then copied the two original profile directories into their new respective directories on the D drive:

D:\Thunderbird Profiles\AppData-Local\abcdefgh.default D:\Thunderbird Profiles\AppData-Roaming\abcdefgh.default

Just to be safe, I then renamed the original profile directories under the "...\AppData\..." directory on C: so that if my idea went south, I could just restore the original configuration easily because they weren't deleted. So the original profile directories became...

C:\Users\xxx\AppData\Local\Thunderbird\Profiles\abcdefgh.default.delete_me C:\Users\xxx\AppData\Roaming\Thunderbird\Profiles\abcdefgh.default.delete_me

All that was left was to open a Windows "cmd" console window (running as administrator) and create a symbolic link in each of the original directories on the C drive that point to the new locations of the directories on the D drive:

C:\Users\xxx\AppData\Roaming\Thunderbird\Profiles>mklink /D "abcdefgh.default" "D:\Thunderbird Profiles\AppData-Roaming\abcdefgh.default"

C:\Users\xxx\AppData\Local\Thunderbird\Profiles>mklink /D "abcdefgh.default" "D:\Thunderbird Profiles\AppData-Local\abcdefgh.default"

(Note that I changed the "current directory" before running each "mklink" command to put the symlink in the right directory.)

Then, I started up Thunderbird and... it was as if nothing happened. Everything (old messages, settings, etc.) was still there exactly as before. So far, my limited testing seems to indicate that this process worked without a hitch. I even tried the Thunderbird "backup profile" feature and it created a zip file that seems to contain a subset of the contents of the "Roaming" profile directory, which I suspect is perhaps all that really needs to be saved in a profile backup? Right?

Just in case, I haven't deleted the original, but renamed, profile directories yet. I thought I'd post this message and see if anyone has a reason why moving the profile to a different drive by this symlink process is a "big mistake." Or even a "little mistake" for that matter.

Love the browser and sticking with it even as people push Chrome. One unexpected little benefit that I came to really enjoy was the Pocket stories shown when opening a new tab. At first, these were quirky, interesting and/or fun stories, and most importantly, they were *not* news stories. Now, a lot of them are news stories straight from news outlets. ***Please allow users an option to turn off *news* stories in the Pocket feed.*** I know how to turn off Pocket stories altogether; I know how to dismiss an individual story; I know how to thumb down a story (though this feature didn't really seem to influence my feed and now it has disappeared altogether on my Windows version of Firefox) - It would just be great to have an on/off toggle for people who don't want news stories in this space. It's really important right now for people to have fun and information spaces on the internet that are not the news. We know how and where to get news, and unfortunately, bad news is seeping in through the cracks everywhere we look. Please give us a version of Pocket that is nothing but fun little reads!

I recently hat some issues with one of my accounts. At first some random mails disappeared right after receiving them, which made me question my sanity. Last week, I was able to witness a mail being recieved, appearing in search results, disappearing in the client and disappearing the mail from the server about a minute later.

While I was still wondering about this and looking for solutions (I tried the "Repair Folder" last week), I found no apparent changes, until yesterday, when about 9 months worth of emails turned into thin air. (Not in the inbox, not in the trash, not in the archive or on the server). Fortunately our IT department has backups and could also confirm my suspicion that the deletion was issued from Thunderbird.

I think there is a severe bug somewhere, but at the current moment I don't have the smallest clues to write a useful bugreport. Where would you start collecting evidence for this?

(Running Thunderbird, version=128.6.0, on Windows10, when this happened)

Thanks, Daniel

Hi,

Using Browser "firefox", I have had this problem

In attached, i looked at this white screen up after pushing ctrl+shift+c

I saw this key is for web development screen but, now just appear white screen, so I couldn't remove that

Although i found in Setting of browser, I don't capture it

. What happened to Mozilla Firefox? It no longer works. I had it as my default but had to switch over to Edge to get to Facebook, Gmail, , etc. Restarted computer twice, and it still didn't work. Clue (?): The desktop comes up as usual. Used shortcut to try get to Facebook. First time a message from Mozilla flashed on the screen about something to do with PDF, but not long enough for me to read. After that, only a blank screen appeared, the little thingy that goes back & forth in the tab showing the program was in the midst of getting the website I wanted was not moving, which I think means something was stuck I am not very computer literate.

Hello Guys!

do you have some recommendation for my issues with printing my Mails. Everytime i want to print my Mails some codes come up and this isnt nice to print.

Do you have any solutions.

Thank you in advance!

Yours Hannes

New Computer--4 days old Have downloaded Thunderbird (twice, the latest version from Moz website) Thunderbird crashes whenever I leave the computer long enough for it to go into sleep mode Crash reason: EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION_READ Troubleshooting gives no answers Now running in Troubleshoot Mode having disabled add ons (none, I believe) Not much running on new computer yet--Avast, DuckDuckGo [I had a browser crash & needed to reload it on day 2 of machine's life (DuckDuck)...which might mean it is a machine issue rather than Thunderbird?...] Help! bp-4f000aa4-9396-4686-9338-49b190250203

After a short while (2- 4 minutes), the program freezes and does not display emails.

Is et because I have reach the storage limit for Thunderbird? I have 20 accounts with mails

Application Thunderbird Version 128.2.3esr Build-ID 20240920043836

I've been having a problem with FF for the last two weeks. At times downloads accessing web sites are slow or even get hung up. Usually reloading or refreshing the page fixes the problem. I tried a FF safe boot and things seemed to work better. I have had the same four extensions for quite awhile. Are there any reports of UBO causing issues?

When setting up Thunderbird, I did not see the radio tick box for removing mail from the server. What will happen now that I have removed about 10000 pieces of email from my local account on my computer's hard drive?

I have more questions, but would rather ask one at a time.
