Thunderbird Portable

I installed the current (John T Haller) 116 beta test version yesterday, and it ran beautifully right out-of-the-box. Then I checked Help > About and promptly took an update. Worked flawlessly. Today, another update, and it's working perfectly. From portable 116.0bx to 117.0b3 in two days. Thank you, John T.

I'm running 102.13.0 and would like to use it primarily for managing a set of google calendars and task lists—I don't need it for mail.

I installed the provider-for-google-calendar addon and successfully authenticated with my google account, and was able to interact with the calendar & tasks as expected. But every time I restart TB, I have to re-authenticate with google again. I did make sure the "Don't ask again on this device" was checked.

I got a notification in Thunderbird that 102.13.1 is available for download. When I clicked on the link to see the release notes, there was a note that Supernova is now available.

I'm curious to know if there will be a 102.13.1 portable update and if work has started on a portable version of 115?

Thanks so much for all of the work you do, John, to make Thunderbird Portable available.

Hi,

I'm repeatedly getting "Download error: Reget Error" preventing me from installing Thunderbird into my PortableApps system on both computers I've tried it on. Other apps are updating just fine.

What is needed to solve this please?

Thanks, Paul W.

I'm running standalone Thunderbird Portable 102.9 on a network drive (CIFS) from my Windows 10Pro machine. Runs fine, but I can't get it to update using the standalone method. It's the only portable app I use regularly so don't have the PortableApp platform installed.

Topic title is the concise summary, I apologize for such a long post below to add more details.

I'd already posted a topic on Thunderbird's primary forum and was referred here. Here's a link to that topic but all info in it is reposted here on this Portableapps topic:

Tried every option found - can change menus, composition fonts, increase points - nothing works! Latin, others - nothing! Did not do anything to provoke this sudden change and must use a magnifying glass icon for every incoming message - please help, thanks.

Hello
I'm running Tbird portable on a usb drive with Windows. It was working fine until recently - but now when I open it, it asks me to create a new profile & I can't figure out how to direct it back to the original profile (I've tried the -profile "path" command line argument but I still get the same request to create a profile) - how can I get it to access my old emails again?
Thanks!

Has anyone else started getting spurious new update notifications for 102.8.0 even though they're already running this version?

I'm not sure if this is a general Thunderbird problem or something specific to the portable version. I'm leaning towards it being an issue with Thunderbird itself but wanted some advice before I open a ticket with Mozilla.

Thanks in advance.

There is a bug that strongly breaks usability: when I move Thunderbird Portable to another PC, it doesn't remember which folders has "Favorite" mark. Also, I have "Favorite" option set in View - Folders menu, but it resets to "All" on another PC. Some folders occasionally lost Favorite mark even when I move Thunderbird folder within 1 PC.
