Addon Compatibility Check for TB 102/TB 115
Rated 3 out of 5 stars
Nice little tool and I know it's in BETA, but of late, when I try to view the info page for this add-on, it just shows a blank page and I can't get to any other page in any other tab without closing the add-on tab first (I hope that makes sense).
One thing I would like to request (which I can't do while I have this issue) is the ability to hide or ignore add-ons which this add-on thinks do not work with the current version of TB as I have one which does work but is flagged as being outdated.
UPDATE:
My apologies. I am running Windows 11 Pro (21H2)
TB version 102.11.0
The error occurs after you click the "Opto's other addons" button and click any "more" link for any of your other add-ons.
Hope that clarifies things a bit better.
Minimize on Close
Rated 4 out of 5 stars
Let;s start by stating you need to read up on the Mozilla add-ons and security.
I will paste it here for you to save you the trouble...
--------------------------------------------------
"Have full, unrestricted access to Thunderbird, and your computer
The extension is using an older technology and has full access to Thunderbird’s internal APIs and does not need to request individual permissions. Up to Thunderbird 68 almost every add-on had this unrestricted access without specifically asking for it. Add-ons request this permission, as long as the new permission based API system does not yet offer the functionality they need.
Extensions requesting this permission might:
Change every aspect of Thunderbird’s user interface
Read and modify all your data (messages, contacts, calendars, web content and passwords)
Read, modify and execute any file on your computer
Add-ons published to addons.thunderbird.net (ATN) are subject to human review. If you install extensions from other locations, you have to be sure that you can trust the source. "
--------------------------------------------------
This add-on is one such add-on and therefore it should be as safe as any other that requires this so called, no requesting permission.
I also wanted to point out (specifically to Firefox user aafc1b) that you can use a shortcut to open TB in minimised mode but you must install the shortcut into "shell: common startup" and not "shell:startup".
I have used this add-on, well, since I started using TB and never had any issues on a Windows 11 (or 10 for that matter) and it's a god send. Having to minimise using the minimise button doesn't bode well with other apps which do the same thing when you click the CLOSE button but as others have said, this should be something which is included in TB, but not necessarily activated/enabled by default.

Please excuse misspellings and anything that may not make sense or cause offence as the medication I take can have an adverse effect on my mind.
Simple Startup Minimizer
Rated 4 out of 5 stars
I've upped my rating to the typical value for the add-on as my previous remarks were solely based on the Windows OS.
I apologise to the developer for this and also to non Windows users who I may have confused with my previous review.
Simple Startup Minimizer
Rated 3 out of 5 stars
I'm giving this a 3 star for the effort the user has put into this but this add-on is not required as you can do the same thing with the program icon.
Right click the icon, look for the box that has Run before it and change the drop box to "Minimised" or whatever the text is in your native language, probably the second option down. Then click Apply then OK (or you can just hit OK) and confirm you wish to proceed if you get a UAC/administrator popup. Depending on where you have saved the icon will determine if you get the popup message.
To create your own collections, you must have a Mozilla Add-ons account.
