Less and Less Space on Your Disk? Using Thunderbird?

 If you see your free disk space going lower and lower and you are using Thunderbird, there's a good chance a bug is eating away a lot of it.

First step: disable automatic compacting of folders: uncheck "Compact all folders..."


Then go to:

C:\Users\xxx\AppData\Roaming\Thunderbird\Profiles\

Check the size if you have multiple ones, go inside and delete all "nstmp" files.

Those are the product of a bug:

"This sounds a lot like the folder compaction bug which can cause Thunderbird to drastically increase the size of temporary files (nstmp, nstmp-2, etc) if the process fails. We're currently rewriting the code for this (https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1890448) and a fix should be coming soon."
