Mozilla Thunderbird 38.5.0 and 38.5.1

Post by heyou »

Something I just noticed: In my list of installed programs, I see both Mozilla Thunderbird 38.5.0 and 38.5.1. Do I need both of them to be installed? Seems like I should need only the most recent version. Is it OK to delete the older version?

You should only have the one, but it depends on how you installed 38.5.1. Was it through the updater? That should have written over the previous installation.

In the control panel, enable the Location column to see if they are installed to the same location.

Sorry it has taken me so long to reply. Yes, that would have happened through the updater. Since then there's been another update, and now there's only one version in my list of installed programs. So, somehow that duplication was solved with this latest update. Thanks!
