OPEN ATTACHMENTS TB 91.2.1
WITH THE NEW TB, IF YOU DOUBLE CLICK ON THE ATTACHMENT THE ATTACHMENT OPENS IN A NEW TAB INSTEAD OF A NEW WINDOW OF THE ATTACHMENTS APP. I.E. A PDF FILE USED TO OPEN IN ADOBE. NOW YOU HAVE TO PRINT IT AS A PDF FILE.
IS THERE SOME OTHER WAY TO DO IT THE OLD WAY?

open preferences and change the helper program for PDF files to whatever you like. It will be defaulted to Thunderbird.
I have the same problem. When I open 'preferences' I can't find/see where I can edit file associations?
Under Preferences, I have a choice of: General, Composition, Privacy & Security, Chat and Calendar. I can see nothing under any of these.
This has happened since an update to 91.2 a few days ago.
Possibly related; TB usually crashes/hangs whilst I am browsing preferences.
If anyone could assist, I'd be unbelievably grateful, this is *really* annoying. Thanks in anticipation

Open Preferences, in the search box type PDF and press enter. My advice on what to type keeps changing because I like at least some variety. The result is the same. The helper application selection dialog is shown so you can edit it's contents.
Thanks Matt, I did try that; No results!
...and then it hung/crashed, again
Found a solution; the only way to be able to display/change file associations was to start TB in safe mode.
Running in normal mode gave no results when searching in Preferences, but in safe mode, all were available.
Hope this helps someone else
It should help you. You apparently have an addon that is having issues post update. Lord only knows what other parts of the program are not functioning correctly. Note if you have buttons or toolbars from your anti virus product in Thunderbird it very may well be those addons, which are usually not registered,or installed, but force injected into the running application but the security product that is supposed to be preventing hacking.
I think I may have a calendar addon, I'll remove that and see if it helps, though I generally avoid addons in TB as they're usually trouble.
At least I can open a pdf without saving now.
Appreciate your help
