Thunderbird Portable

I recently installed TB Portable 3.1.6 on a portable USB drive. The transfer of static TB to the portable went fine, and it runs as expected on Win-XP.
However, when I take the drive to either a Vista or Win7 system (I've tried both, on both x32 & x64 based PCs), I get a popup window during the startup with the following message:

I upgraded to Thunderbird Portable 3.1.6 over the weekend and lost one of my folders. It was named Registrations and had all my software registration and activation info. So I need it! Has it been overwritten? Is my only solution to restore a back up copy of the software?

On SourceForge all I can find is 2.0.0.6 as the latest 2 release version.
I tried version 3 and it was horrible.

Are there any versions later than 2.0.0.6 that I can download (but still version 2)? On the desktop I am using 2.0.0.24 (non-portable version) so I was kind of hoping I could use something a bit fresher than the year 2007 in portable form.

Thanks for any help!

I'am working with a self made Portable tree, e.g. Thunderbird, Firefox, OpenOffice, Launcher is PStart.

When I copy the tree to another location, all the Thunderbird path entries in mimeTypes.rdf, pointing to additional applications in portable tree serving attachments by double clicking are unlegal.

Reason is .. the entries are using absolute path names.

Although ... path entries in mimeTypes.rdf of Firefox are corrected (customized).

Question:
What mechanism does Firefox use to customize path entries in mimeTypes.rdf on the fly and ...
why doesn't so Thunderbird.

Hi,

I've been using Portable TB 2.* on Linux/Wine, and it worked fine.
After upgrading to 3.1.6, mail texts (text-only, no html) became unreadable.
Not all mails, but a lot of them.
The settings are unchanged and still work on PTB 2.0.0.24.
Folder settings: UTF-8, ISO-8859-1 or ISO-8859-15 set as Standard Encoding, but "Standard ...zuweisen" ( e.g. "apply standard (?)") is not checked.
Usually that works, with the exception of mails with incorrect encoding. But here not only a few special characters are unreadable, but the whole message is scrambled.

change color to local folders. Personalize.

How can I organize my emails local folders easily , changing the color folder, etc.

Best Regards

I used Thunderbird Portable 3.1.6 on a freshly installed Windows XP+SP3 PC (Dell, German) and now Windows’ logon screen shows "1506 ungelesene E-Mails" ("1506 unread emails") for the user I ran TB Portable under.

So it seems TB Portable somehow stores information on the PC, or leaves registry entries.

Could someone more knowledgeable please have a look into this?

Hint: Windows can be configured not to show the number of unread emails on the logon screen, so be sure to have this function enabled while testing.

Guys I have one q for u.

If there are people who use Thunderbird as rss reader?

Why news from portableapps updated only when I start thunderbird?

Do you the same?

Hi!

I think about this... Why launcher is not close after run main program?

Thnx.

Just wondering, which version is included in the portable app? I am thinking it is the 32bit version.
