Hello to all, I upgraded Thunderbird on my Windows 10 laptop from 68.10 to 78.01 and can't see any address books. Is this upgrade suppose to keep and display your address books? I tried to follow all recommendations that I could find and nothing helped. I even tried to export my address books from my second Windows 10 pc and import to PC 1, and I still couldn't see anything. Finally I had to uninstall (and delete all directories) all versions from laptop 1 and copy everything from laptop 2. Now I'm back on version 68.10 and everything seems to be OK. Is there a bug in conversion to 78.01? Thanks, Yuri

Isisombulu esikhethiweyo

Now I understand why address book was not migrated. Unfortunately ti should have been made clear when automatic migration happened. Now I'll wait until this "bug" will be fixed.

Was this issue fixed in 78.1.0? Was it even recognized as an issue?

I believe the bug has been fixed in 78.1.0, which is why I posted the link to the release notes so that you could read for yourself the fixes that were done in this release.
