Uninstall beta program

If the user has the old program still installed, the user should not need to uninstall beta nor downgrade.

Uninstall beta program Install current release, but DO NOT allow the auto start. This is important. You will need to start Thunderbird in a different way to allow the downgrade.

starting Thunderbird with "--allow-downgrade"


In Windows, search type: run select the 'Run' app type: thunderbird.exe -P --allow-downgrade (Note: there is a space before and after -P) click on OK

  • Please confirm you are using a gmail account, configured as imap.
  • Do you have more than one email account?
  • Please confirm - does the folder pane header show "Unified Folders"?

So your replies are shown in your Inbox?

As for going back to your previous version...if you installed beta in the normal manner, then your previous version and all its data is still available. You can run both beta and the previous version at the same time.

You're welcome.

Did something give you the idea that you had to uninstall 102 before using the beta? Because there was no need to do that.
