Saving passwords
I cannot get Thunderbird to store my email passwords. I just upgraded to 102.12.0 (64 bit) on a new Win 11 machine, from 59.9.1 (32 bit) on an old Win Vista machine. I transferred my profiles, and neither Thunderbird or Firefox are saving entered passwords. I am getting the prompts asking if I want to save, and am responding yes. I have McAfee LiveSafe, V. 1.10.231, RelN 16.0 R110, Afid 977

You might try disabling your antivirus and rechecking. There might also be settings in it to allow emails.
I tuned off Real time scanning (for 45 minutes, closed t'bird, restarted t'bird, no change. I had to reenter my email password more than 8 times. I never had this problem with either of the previous versions.
Help > More TRoubleshooting Information Under 'Application Basics' - half way - Profile Folders - click on 'Open Folder'
A new window opens shwoing the contents of your profile name folder. Exit Thunderbird now - this is important.
Scroll down, locate and delete the following files if you see them.
- cert8.db (old unused)
- key3.db (old unused)
- pkcs11.txt - this file is probably the cause of the problem
- signons.sqlite (old unused)
- signons.txt (old unused)
Start Thunderbird a new pkcs11.txt should get created in the profile.
