Thunderbird Portable

I have found a few Thunderbird-related leftovers. I use Win7x64. I have been using Thunderbird since the previous version (91.5.0 I suppose). I've been using two extensions: Dark Reader and Thunderbird Conversations.

LEFTOVERS
Files:
1. AppData\Local\Thunderbird
2. AppData\Roaming\Thunderbird
Registry:
1. HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Thunderbird
2. HKEY_USERS\***pc-user-personal-id***-Classes\Software\Thunderbird

***pc-user-personal-id*** - it's a random string which is different for each Windows user profile

Thunderbird Portable 91.4.0 leaves an empty file named UpdateLock-XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX in ProgramData after being closed. This is due to the way Thunderbird calculates the CityHash of the path it is running from.

I felt it was more important to update Thunderbird than to have it perfect. I spent a few hours poking around the 2GB of Thunderbird source to get it to match. I'm likely just missing a small detail. I'll be working on this to get it sorted in the next release.

My rss feed of portableapps.com has disappeared from thunderbird. From what I can see on the site, there is no option to select an RSS feed that can be used with thunderbird. Please clarify.

thanks

Hi,

i started my Thunderbird Portable this morning and everything seems to be gone.
It asks me to setup my emails like nothing is installed. Its looks like my ThunderbirdPortable.exe is starting Thunderbird 91.3.2?

The mail folders are still there and full but Thunderbird cant "find them" anyome?. For example: E:\Mail\Data\profile\Mail\pop.gmx.net

Using Windows10, external drive.
Any advice?

Thanks a lot!

What will the actual version of Thunderbird Portable be that replaces the 78.14 version?

Firefox 91 ESR portable has been released, but nothing for Thunderbird which basically has the same Mozilla stable release
schedule as Firefox.

Here is the best and easy solution to make ThunderbirdPortable as Default Mail Client...

1. Create a subfolder in your ThunderbirdPortable folder (for example: "..\ThunderbirdPortable\Windows")

2. Change to the created subfolder to create the following batch-file...

3. Create a batch-file (for example: "Thunderbird Portable Integration.bat") with the following content :

Hi,

Been loving using Thunderbird for years, but when I switched from the regular installed version, to PortableApps, one thing I could never get working again, was clicking a mailto:// link in any browser, it always tried to turn the requested email into a newsgroup message.

Any way I have found an answer, and it has to do with the way that a Registry key is being written by the System.

Hi,

will there be an Update for the 78 Version or do i have to install the new Beta Version of 91?
Thx for your real good job!

Would be nice to get some news how you see this in future.

Following a system crash and a disk system repair Thunderbird thinks that it running for the first time despite most of the installation looking fine on the disk. Looking at Thunderbird support it appears that one or more profile file needs replacing. Unfortunately the relevant files are in a structure that differs significantly between the standard and portable systems. Can anyone tell me which files need replacing?
