Thunderbird 102.6.1 (64-bit) icon on the Windows task bar is just a document folder

[SolderMaster13]

The Thunderbird 102.6.1 (64-bit) icon on the Windows task bar is just a document empty folder,instead of the BLUE Thunderbird icon on the desktop. When I place a copy of the Thunderbird icon on the Windows 10 taskbar at the bottom of my screen, it turn into a empty document icon?? This started happening several version ago. It assets Thunderbird but it appears strange and unprofessional, please fix it.

The solution to this problem is to first save all your mail filters and calendar entries. Then DELETE and REMOVE all of Thunderbird files from your computer. Then reinstall thunderbird latest version and replace all your mail accounts, filters, and calendar entries via the import tool. It works but it takes a lot of work and time.

I use Thunderbird since more than 10 years, and indeed this problem is always there. The Tbird icon in Windows task bar regularly changes into a simple doc and the link is lost :-(((((((((((((((((

WHEN WILL THIS BE FIXED ????

I have no other app with that pb!

Hello,

I'm running Windows10, and have been using Mozilla's Thunderbird for a long, long time.

This is the first time I'm experiencing this:
I've got Thunderbird pinned to the taskbar, and its icon shows as a blank doc icon.
If I unpin it from the taskbar (as I've got Thunderbird running), the icon changes to the correct blue icon.
As I shut/exit Thunderbird APP, the blue icon goes away (this is the correct/expected behavior).

This is happening only for the Thunderbird APP.

All help appreciated

Thanks

I've had this issue intermittently for quite awhile now. However, when I was making other changes to my machine, TB's icon was moved to the left on the taskbar. Before it had always been at the far right. Now that it is not at "the end," I don't seem to be having the problem anymore. Only been a couple of weeks, but we'll see....

So, scratch that. Just disappeared on me!
