Solved: Connection problem after Thunderbird update to 78

[Bruce A. Johnson]

After Thunderbird automatically updated to version 78 in Windows 10, MyPhoneExplorer failed to be able to load contacts from Thunderbird. I made sure that the Thunderbird add-on was updated also. I had already updated MyPhoneExplorer to the latest version (1.8.15), before this.

The problem was that MyPhoneExplorer still tried to access the old style Thunderbird address book files (MAB), like it had done before, instead of the new SQL files.

I solved the problem creating a new user in MPE, and deleting the old one. Then recreated all the settings again.

Actually, I moved the MPE user files from
C:\Users\*username*\AppData\Roaming\MyPhoneExplorer
to another location for backup. Then ran MyPhoneExplorer and created new user.
