Tagging fails when updating quickFilters #72

Closed RealRaven2000 closed 2 years ago

RealRaven2000 commented 3 years ago

It seems that every time a new quickFilters update is installed, it breaks the Tagging feature within Thunderbird until you do a Thunderbird restart.

Not a huge issue, but it is a bit frustrating to all of a sudden loose tagging and then need to reload Thunderbird to get it working again.

My guess is that this is connected to the tag listener which can be activated here:

It is probably not removed correctly by the previous instance of quickFilters when it is stopped to install the new version. Note: when you uncheck the option it is likely this isn't removed either (I need to check that), only after disabling quickFilters or restarting Thunderbird, so this is the first thing I would like to implement.

Yes, this happens only in the session in which quickFilters is updated. After a restart of Thunderbird all issues are resolved then (until the next quickFilters update). It's been happening for at least a couple/few quickFilters updates/versions (I just kept forgetting to report it). (And sorry, I didn't think to look at the console when it happened :-( )

I'm not presently using the tag changes for any filtering actions, so I've un-checked that box. I'll try to watch when the next update comes out to see if it still causes this tag error and report back here.

I have inadvertently created a new issue #90 - had forgotten it already exists here. I uploaded a fix there, closing this one instead

Fixed in 5.4 released today
