3 years ago Whoops! Sorry about that. It looks like AaR is the only one of several add-ons that I have installed which uses the new method introduced at some point in Version 78 (I think). Anyway I found it and my initial test was successful.
Might be a good idea to update the instructions page to at least mention this change to how add-on options are managed.
Have AaR added to my 64bit Thunderbird Version 78.7.1 (TB) running on Windows 10. Read and tried to follow the instructions found on this page. Setting up the TB options worked as described. The target is a local folder. However, could NOT find anyway to perform any kind of setup for AaR. There is NO entry on the Tools sub-menu for AaR. When selecting the Tools>Add-on Options entry AaR is NOT among listed Add-ons. Unlike the screenshot displayed on the referenced instructions page my TB menu (ICON upper right corner) shows NO sub-items for the Add-ons entry. Ctrl+Shift+A does NOT appear and does nothing. When I select the Tool Bar ICON for AaR it displays a warning about having an Internet connection and offers a single selection called "Autoarchive Now". Clicking on that entry seems to do absolutely nothing.
Is there some kind of magic touch that is needed to setup and activate AaR on TB 78.7.1?
