If you have your computer set to automatically install Windows Updates, it will be installed automatically. Microsoft releases a new version of this tool on the second Tuesday of every month - in other words, on “Patch Tuesday.” It appears as just another patch in Windows Update. So if you don't update to the latest TB, you won't have any access at all.What is the Malicious Software Removal Tool? And I disabled 3rd party cookies.Īlso note: Google will end support for insecure apps (e.g., older versions of Thunderbird) on May 30 of this year. Would have saved me a big bunch of time this afternoon.įWIW, I set cookies to be deleted whenever TB is exited, but they'll remain active until then. It just kept showing a Gmail log-in screen which wouldn't accept my email address (never got as far as asking for password.) That's when I searched the net and found the KB article at ghacks.ĭon't know why TB didn't automatically enable the cookie setting with this update, and/or pop up a notice with a link to the Mozilla KB article. I wasn't able to log in to send emails after this update today because I had cookies disabled in TB. Cookies may be disabled after the successful authentication, but since cookies will expire eventually, it would be necessary to re-enable them whenever a new cookie needs to be set. It is required to enable cookies as the OAuth token requires it. Thunderbird users who have disabled cookies in the email client will notice that the new authentication method does not work without them. If you use Thunderbird as a client to access Gmail accounts, rather than viewing/sending email via the Gmail website, be sure to read this Mozilla KB article (at ), about Thunderbird 91.8.0.
