Snap Thunderbird + ntfs mounted drive
by Wawa from LinuxQuestions.org on (#6MQKC)
Hello There,
Usually I have my Thunderbird profile stored on a ntfs disk mounted as /mnt/....
I do that to share this profile with Thunderbird / Windows.
Since Thunderbird come as snap packages I have serious problems with this system. I never have problem doing that with Kubuntu before.
He forget language settings between each use and the toolbar cant be configured (menu entry is grey) and so on (there is a lot of ubiquitous errors if I launch it from console)...
Even with no explicit error message about that I strongly suspect that this come from restricted access rights on the profile folder / files because if I move the same profile onto my home directory everything go smoothly.
Is there something to do to get / improve Thunderbird access to mounted ntfs directory ?
Thanks for the help and regards.
Philippe
