116, so you are not using the release version. But you do not appear to be using the beta version either as it is at 122. Please check that version again, I think it is wrong. You are talking of passwords. they to my knowledge have not changed location for about 10 years. SO have you consulted the support documentation https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/password-manager-remember-delete-change-tb#thunderbird:mac:tb115 Note this part well. Gmail at least requires the use of oauth2.0 authentication. Version 91 undertook automatic conversion to this required authentication method, but using this, the password is not used at all. A token is stored in the password manager to enable authentication with the provider. I think you might want to look at your calendar or address book for the source of your password requests. both can have remote objects (calendar address book) and as such will at time pop up a password request for access to those items. Personally I think your issue will be an antivirus program. I have seen a lot of similar issues with nothing to download and most if not all come down to the antivirus or software firewall messing things up. A good way to determine if this is the case are the following tests. #* Does Thunderbird work as expected in [[Troubleshoot Mode Thunderbird|Thunderbird troubleshooting mode]]? #* Does Thunderbird work as expected with your OS started in '''[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Safe_mode safe mode with Networking]'''.
