Will thunderbird run on windows 11 with arm architecture?
Hi,
I'm thinking about purchasing a Microsoft Surface Pro that uses the Snapdragon ARM Processor.
Will thunderbird run on windows 11 with ARM architecture?
Thanks, Dave

Not at this time.
Hi Wayne,
Many thanks - but unfortunately that's not the answer I was hoping for 😒
Do you know if there is a work around that enables ThunderBird to be run on Windows 11 with ARM architecture
Or
Do you know when ThunderBird will be released to run on Windows 11 with ARM architecture
Or
Do you know if ThunderBird can be run on Apple iPad with iPadOS 17.5
Many thanks, Dave
Thunderbird simply does not run on ARM. There is a suggestion that it be implemented https://connect.mozilla.org/t5/ideas/thunderbird-build-for-windows-on-arm/idi-p/24929 and I understand there are some Linux build in the community, but I have no idea how well they work. If at all.
There is not an Thunderbird for Android as yet. https://blog.thunderbird.net/2023/12/when-will-thunderbird-for-android-be-released/ https://blog.thunderbird.net/2024/03/thunderbird-for-android-k-9-mail-february-2024-progress-report/
Apple will come after Android is my understanding. But you might want to follow the connect thread on the topic https://connect.mozilla.org/t5/ideas/thunderbird-for-iphone-and-ipad/idc-p/21683
There is nothing on the blog after the end of last year as far as I can see. https://blog.thunderbird.net/2023/11/the-untold-history-of-thunderbird/
