Thunderbird Portable

I see that PortableAppsMenu says there's a Thunderbird 128.1.0 update, but the website downloads 128.0.1 when I surf/click the link manually.

Was able to hotwire the download...

Hello,

I've been using Thunderbird Portable for many years, 32-bit version, now I tried the beta version for bug fix.

I downloaded ThunderbirdPortableTest_128.0_Beta_1_English.paf.exe portable version (64-bit) from PortableApps.com, created backup of my Thunderbird folder, installed portable version over the existing portable 32-bit version, it was started correctly, window positions and sizes are preserved, all settings and accounts are preserved, even though it's a 64-bit version, I updated it to beta 4 successfully.

Can someone tell me if there is a copy of the registry keys in a portable app? I have a copy of thunderbird that I would like to stop checking for updates

Hi,

I have the Versio 115.7.0 (64-bit) and want update to 115.9.0 but the download is just 2.2 kB/s. I have that issue since few days already. The download directly from SourceForge takes around 2 minutes.

I am in the Philippines and have 70 Mbps download speed. Should I update TB over the "Abound Mozilla Thunderbird"-Window.

Thanks and regards,

Lukas

Edit: I think every app is very slow. KeePassXC just 3.0 kB/s. FireFox I can't update, I says there is an error maybe during an incomplete download. I have to try it again in few hours.

I'm new to Portable Apps. This is my first post.

I've read a lot of material on portableapps.com, but I still don't understand how a portable app works with the Windows registry.

I'm starting with Portable Thunderbird so I'll use that as an example. I installed just the portable app itself, not the full portable apps launcher, since I'm just trying this out for now.

I select View>Toolbars> Menu Bar to get the Menu Bar. However, after I restart Thunderbird Portable v102.15.1 (64 bit) it is gone. I need to re-add it each time after restarting.
How can I save the Menu Bar so that it is still there after restarting?

EDIT: I have no Add-Ons enabled, but when I start Thunderbird in Troubleshoot Mode, the Menu Bar is there.

I installed the portable version of Thunderbird and worked on it getting all my settings, add-in, and configuration customized to a point that I now like it. Is there a way to INSTALL the full version and migrate to it?

Hi,

I've noticed that if any Thunderbird Portable is running, an installation of another Thunderbird Portable is impossible at the same time.
This is the default behaviour of all Thunderbird Portable installers – in opposite to the Firefox Portable installers!

after long time, I am againg trying to set up Thunderbird on a usb stick.
Installed OK, but now I would like to paste there the profile from my desktop version
where exactly should I put the profile in?

I got used to TB portable asking to "confirm security exception" at location imap.mail.de:993 or imap.web.de:993. Regular installed Windows10 TB did never ask this nor does TB 115.
When I click "Get Certificate" this hangs for ever.
My E-Mail service provider suggests imap.mail.de:993 for TB. No special hint for TB portable.
I installed same TB 115.4.1 on Windows10. This does not ask for adding security exception AND works fine.
