My Mozilla Thunderbird recently updated 115.3.2 (64-bit)

The Display font & size are now so different that I struggle to read it. I have trouble seeing as it is.. now I'm to the point of crying because it's so hard for me to read and I use it 2-3 times a day.

When I try to change the font and size of...nothing changes. So either help me change the font & font size.. or tell me a way to revert back to the previous version please.

I found some help in a question to use RUN and type: thunderbird.exe -P --allow-downgrade But that didn't do anything.. font is still odd and size is same and there was no downgrade. :( :( :(

Please, I'm begging you... tell an old woman how to revert to previous version or at least how to change font style and size. Pleeeease! I loved my Thunderbird. I don't want to have to stop using it. :( :( :(

wow! That also helped a lot!! Thank you Bud! I'm still having issue with the font style... but at least it's easier to read now that the font's bigger and less dense. Who knew? lol Seriously, I really appreciate these tips.

Next up.. someone who knows how to change the font style and we can mark this one solved! lol
