Install Thunderbird extension under Linux
I want to install a thunderbird extension and in the manual is written to move the extension into the directory extensions, but it seems to me that this directory is not existing.
Code:
meAtMyComp:~/.thunderbird> find -name extension* Gruß, Andre |
andrempunkt,
You need to look in: ~/.thunderbird/<Profile Name>/extensions/ For example: ~/.thunderbird/87dw9lk6.default/extensions/ |
myComp:~/.thunderbird> ll

andrempunkt,
Well, apart from the previously mentioned “extensions” directory/folder, there is nothing else mentioning extensions in my Thunderbird except these 4 items, which are not directories: extensions.ini extensions.json extensions.rdf extensions.sqlite Quote:
Why not backup everything first and then put this particular Thunderbird extension into that directory/folder? From the following link it would appear that the profile folder's extension directory is the one you are looking for: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/...:_Installation Linux: ~/.thunderbird/<Profile Name>/extensions/ |
