Thunderbird Portable

After a reboot. when I start Thunderbirdportable 91.6 from my pinned spot on the taskbar - I check the properties map to D:\Applications\ThunderbirdPortable - it now looks to setup an email account!

It was working perfectly prior to the reboot.

How can I get my D:\Applications\ThunderbirdPortable\Data\profile loaded and why did this happen?

I recenlty upgraded manually to 91.6. Today I get a message saying would I iike to upgrade it? Am I right to say the portableapp Thunderbird version does not support auto updates like this? Should I turn off the update checker?

I recently upgraded from Thunderbird portable version 60.0.1 to 91.6, using it standalone, no platform.
I have been trying to get to see my sent emails in conversation in Thunderbird. The Thunderbird forum has been advising me via a thread I started.
It turns out there is a context menu option, "Open message in conversation"

I've been a user of Thunderbird Portable for many years, and this is a recent problem.

My current Thunderbird Portable is Version 91.5.1 (32 bit).

Sometime a couple of months ago, after I believe there was a Thunderbird update, I began to have a problem when trying to print an email message from Thunderbird. The "Preparing Preview" screen opens, and then never proceeds at all. There is a spinning icon by the words "Preparing Preview" - and on the right side of the screen is the word "Print".

I use a network calendar on my LAN that has the following URL:

ftp://(username):(pasword)@192.168.178.9/USERDATA/userdata/famille/calendrier/No.ics

TB portable cannot synchronize it because TB portable does not know how to open the URL: it briefly asks which app to use in a window ("How do you want to open this? Google Chrome, Internet Explorer, Microsoft Edge") that immediately disappears. The calendar is listed but remains empty.

I thought a ftp client was included in TB to handle FTP URLs.

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.

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!
