There is no "Options" anywhere in the Thunderbird menu bar (square with 3 lines at top of right-hand corner). There is no "Option" tab not under "Tools" either in the menu bar. These are the only tabs under "Tools": Import; Export; Search Messages; Message Filters; Open PGP Key Manager; Download Manager; Activity Manager: Developer Tools. I have been researching this for several days now and cannot find any solutions. I am running Windows 11 Student/Home and my Thunderbird is up to date (version 115.1.0 (64-bit).

It's now called 'Settings'.

There is no "option" tab under 'Settings'.

What @christ1 said was that 'settings' replaces 'options'. Options as a menu item no longer exists.
