Local Inbox saved search folders forgets settings in 52.2.0

I have 4 folders to search chosen for Local Inbox. These are the individual inbox folder from 4 email accounts. This way I can monitor all my Inbox email at one place. After upgrading to 52.2.0, two of the folders became unchecked (both are gmail accounts). After rechecking them and then closing/reopening TBird the chosen search folders were missing the 2 accounts again.

Was Thunderbird FULLY closed? Can you try again with a reboot after setting the mailboxes and before re-opening?

Yes, TBird was fully closed (I checked w/Task Manager). I did not try the reboot though. I'll do that with the next release. For now I have reverted to 51.1.1 and all is good.

I'll give it a try. Thanks!

FWIW, a related problem to the OP is when I attempted to add back the missing Inbox folders, sometimes the account folders I was seeking did not appear in the folder selection window. To resolve that (temporarily) I had to exit/restart TBird.

52.2.1 seems to have solved the issue I reported. Thank you.
