Help needed: Can not install the Enigmail add-on

Hello community,

it's about installing the Enigmail add-on in Thunderbird. Although I restarted my computer, in the right corner of the Enigmail-Heading stands written: "Requires restart". And when I click the button "+ Add to Thunderbird" there will be a pop-up that says: "The add-on could not be installed because it does not match the add-on Thunderbird expected."

Any idea how I can solve this problem? Thanks in advance!

are you using the current V78? if so enigmail has been replaced with an inbuilt end to end encryption. SO you do not install enigmail, just import the keys.
