it happens after upgarde to v.100 every click in the link in thunderbird starts only new empty FF window instead of the link content in a new tab This is not on the thunderbird side, as when I set Chromium as default browser the link is opened correctly.

Try downloading another copy of Firefox, run it from the folder and see if you have the same issue. https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/#product-desktop-release You will have to point your default app to the path of the download and then the file firefox.bin. For me it's this path /home/jonzn4suse/Downloads/Firefox/Nightly/firefox/

Nightly is my daily driver and it works fine as you can see in the screenshot. I cannot get Thunderbird to open in the OS version of Firefox nor the separate copy of 100 that I run. Don't think it's a Firefox issue, but more of a desktop environment issue.
