First of all, it's odd that the download button attempts to install this add-on into Firefox.

So:

#1, do as chuonthis says and right-click, save as and do a manual install within Thunderbird.

#2 You'll notice there's no drop-down menu for this. You have to go to Tools > Add-Ons, click on the extension, then click on its Preferences button.

#3 Although when I first did this, I STILL didn't see anything. I noticed in my Windows drop-down menu two additional items: a) "Folderpane Tools Options" selection (which didn't work) and b) a blank line.

#4 Click on the blank line. It should make a confirmation alert window appear. Click 'OK'.

#5 If the Folderpane Tools Options window still doesn't automatically show, go back to your Windows drop-down menu and then select it.

Hope this helps.

Sloppy, but useful.

*NB If you uninstall this add-on, your folders will remain in their altered position. If you want to "revert" to your old order, you need to do this from within Folderpane prior to uninstalling.
