Patch Tuesday
Patch Tuesday managed to kill my Thunderbird add ons.
They were still there but just didn't work, Had to delete them and reload fresh ones and then they were OK No big deal just a little added fun. :-) Rene |

Classic TB2 Theme font and size changer Rene It's pretty hard to find an article with the details, but my suspicion is, they've been able to kill these from the server side, a long time ago. Thus, it doesn't matter what version of client software you run, they can still fiddle with it from their end. Paul |

Thankfully my 1709 has just arrived, and I installed it without trouble. Sadly I will still have to adjust the font sizes. |

If you are really desperate for 1709 then do it manually by downloading the full ISO and then mounting it to run setup.exe \auto \upgrade. It works very well indeed. Just make sure you have backed up your data just in case you press the wrong buttons!!!!!!!

Just make sure you have backed up your data just in case you press the wrong buttons!!!!!!! You sound like somebody who is not technical minded and you are using the computer because your next door neighbour has one!!!! By the way, when I had a system crash on my other bitlockered system drive the other day, I found I could access data via a macrium backup of this corrupted drive. It seems to be a way around bitlocker, and perhaps Msoft should be notified. |
