Neville, I tried these steps and no go. I'm running Windows 7, 32
bit and WE 9.1. With WE running, about:config wouldn't respond. I
had to exit WE and use NVDA to accomplish the steps. But, no go.

Neville, I have tried making the suggested changes using WE 9.3 from
Microsoft 365 and Windows 10. But with Tbird, no effect, still no mouse
at all. Clearly something is very wrong. I previously used that simple

The first two modifications had been done previously on my system but

I'm running Windows 7, but I doubt that makes a difference. It looked to
me like something Mozilla did. My guess, and that's all it is since I'm
not a Mozilla developer, is that the config option was placed there in
preparation for some new functionality. Then they added that
functionality in

Hi Rick,
That is a real shame that the modifications to Firefox and Thunderbird
don't work under W10. It now appears that W7 users, both 32 and 64
bit,are the only ones to benefit because W8 is not improved either.
I am now having second thoughts about moving up to W10 prior to the

There is no deadline.
You can keep Windows 7 at least until January 2020.
Don't let anybody tell you otherwise.

Neville, thanks for your efforts. I really don't know why it should be

others, like me, never get anywhere. I still get nothing but a line
