How can I be sure that any new version of Thunderbird won't go and alter/remove any of the current features that I like and am accustomed to?

Uncheck - do not select checkbox 'Use a background service to install updates'.Select 'automatically install updates' or 'check for updates, but let me choose whether to install them'.You have two choices, choose which you prefer. Here it will tell you what version you are currently running. Menu app icon > 'Options' or 'Preferences'.Sometimes Anti-Virus software can get in the way of program downloads, but I believe you have already asked this question before and had a reponse. If it locates an update then it might be forcing Thunderbird to say there is an update. You do not mention what version you are currently using.ĭo you have any 'Updater Software' running on your computer because it might be controlling program updates on your computer rather than allowing Thunderbird to control it. (Though I'm getting fed up with this message coming up every time I go to my emails, and wish I could find a way to shut it up!). Should I just wait and see if this latest version of Thunderbird will download itself automatically?. If I found it ''had ''altered/removed features that I liked etc, could I ever get these re-instated? I feel like I've been taken to a 'cul de sac' instead!Īlong with this message is always 'We'll help you download it'. No download happens, or not any that I can see. When I click on 'Download Thunderbird' nothing happens, except that I'm taken to here: If I found it had altered/removed features that I liked etc, could I ever get these re-instated? Or just clear step-by-step guidance as to how to do something. I don't need explanations etc - even just a 'yes' or a 'no' would be sufficient for me. Many thanks if anyone can simply answer these 3 queries for me!
