I have been running Thunderbird under Windows 7, SP 1, for over a year. On Dec 2, 2016 got message about "version of this file npt compatable with version of Windows,,," see image. I noticed that in the Mozilla Maintenance Service log there is a message dated Dec2 about "return code 1" "***Warning Error running update procedure" See image.
