New version 128 updates to 131
Good morning, I had asked a question early on Saturday, but was unavailable the rest of the weekend so just now responding to associate Corey Bryan's answer. I had gotten a message that I am using an unsupported version and they recommend downloading the latest stable version.
He said it appears that I'm on the "Release" channel and most likely want to be on the ESR channel. I also mentioned that I am a cave-man when it comes to anything computer and am very skittish about making any changes as I don't how to straighten out any errors that might occur.
He asked me where I installed Thunderbird from and the answer is that I don't know. It was an IT guy that did it many years ago.
So I guess my questions are, if I've been using this version for years, do I need to or should I update it? If so, if I click on the latest stable version of Thunderbird, will that change anything on my computer, aside from getting the newer version of T-Bird? And will my e-mails in Thunderbird look any different?
Thanks very much for the help. Tony

I have now tried extensively to find any possible other process that might be updating Thunderbird. I could not find any. However, right before Thunderbird updates itself, I can find a crash log in the console (but I do not understand its content).
@Wayne Mery and @Mapenzi : do you have any idea how I could fix this problem which looks like coming directly from Thunderbird?
Ok, I tried some more around and might have found a stable solution. I completely deleted the folder with all Thunderbird provile information (the folder user/Library/Thunderbird) before reinstallation. So far it has not upgraded in 2 days.
(I now have other issues, like freezing upon opening and not being able to open attached files, but for that I might find a solution somewhere else).
Dear all, it in the end was indeed that there is JAMF program installed on my MAC which had the channel set to "release". Frankly, this is very confusing why the release channel would direct one to the beta non-release version. But, after now setting it to ESR-release the problem should be solved. Thanks for the patience and guidance with the problem.
