Updated to release 115.2.2 (64-bit)

Previous release, able to create a calendar event by right click an unopened message and convert to event. A separate calendar window would open up.

Let me know how to provide more information.

Right-click in the message body, not in the Threads Pane (message list), Convert to...

Or, click the More button in the message header.

Thanks for the reply. I closed and reopened T'bird.

I have Thunderbird running on two Windows PCs. One is running Windows 11 Pro, the other is running Windows 7 Pro.

On Windows 7, right click on a message, select Convert to-Event opens a popup with the Event window.

On Windows 11, right click on a message, select Convert to-Event doesn't popup a window.

You won't see a popup if there are no calendars enabled. If you already have one enabled and it still doesn't work, see if it works in safe/troubleshoot mode (hold Shift when launching TB).
