Glad to hear it's working normally again

This issue should be fixed in v5.0.3; however, it also means that you have an underlying issue that your "data" folder is not writable. If you go to: - main menu: Tools / Options - Select the "Storage" page Presumably, your "data path" will be something like "c:\program files..." If that's the case,...

Thanks for the info, Sampei.Nihira. That's kind of an interesting tactic -- on the one hand, Yahoo/AOL have promised to deprecate the password method, which is presumably why Thunderbird is doing this; but on the other hand, I believe that app-passwords will still be allowed, which means people usin...

The timestamps on your data files appear to be recent. There have been cases where something (possibly Windows Restore) causes the files to be restored after a system reboot, but I would think that simply exiting and restarting POP Peeper (as opposed to restarting your computer) would preserve the p...

lakrsrool is providing instructions for creating an app-password, which is an alternative but not the same thing as Oauth2 and may or may not always be the best solution. There are 2 requirements for the Oauth2 button to appear for Yahoo accounts: 1) You must be using IMAP (not POP3 or WebMail) 2) T...

I would be absolutely happy to address any of the problems, but my main concern with your post is that you did not provide any specific examples. I get unnecessary icon alerts, pop-up messages, notices that won't go away even when i've acted on them. Please provide more information about this. What ...

As I alluded to above, POP Peeper uses the system's API for http/https calls, that's why you need the OS's support for RSS feeds. The SSL plugin is used for IMAP, POP3 and SMTP.

POP Peeper v5.0.3 addresses all known issues in v5.0. v5.0.3 will be released to everyone soon. POP Peeper v5.0.3 is available for Pro users who opt into the "early release" channel. This is effectively a way to test fixes before it is released to everyone. To enable this option: 1) On the main menu...

I found several search results leading to this page: https://sockettools.com/kb/support-for-tls-1-2-on-windows-xp/ and of most relevance: "Microsoft had previously released an update for Windows Embedded POSReady 2009 which could be installed on Windows XP, adding support for TLS 1.2. However, it re...

Reggorf is right, it depends on what your version of IE supports (it's not really "IE" but IE uses the same system-provided technology that POP Peeper uses). I've seen cases where the relevant options were disabled, so make sure that you've enabled the appropriate settings: - In the Windows Start me...

dallas77us -- Sorry for not following up in this topic sooner, but there is a change in v5.0.1 that should fix this. If you have a Pro license, see the following post for information to update (currently v5.0.2): https://www.esumsoft.com/Forums/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=7525 If you do not have Pro, please...

This issue has been resolved. The fix is addressed in v5.0.2 ("Fix: Potential crash at startup due to AntiJunk initialization") and was fixed for ws3333 by modifying the ini file.

What if you: 1) delete the poppeeper.ini file (in the current folder, not the "old" folder) 2) Create a new poppeeper.ini file and copy/paste the *text* from the "old" file into the new -> ini files are just plain text, so open them in any text editor like notepad or wordpad -- just make sure that i...

Ok, good. So the next step I would do is to copy just the ini file -- this will include your accounts and most settings. I wouldn't allow it to check the accounts; so if PP starts, immediately exit and then copy all the other files (make sure you copy and not move as it may be necessary to delete fi...

To quote the information page: "You may occasionally see a banner above the message list which provides a link to purchase POP Peeper Pro or another Esumsoft product... POP Peeper doesn't show 3rd party ads or sell your data; the only way that Esumsoft makes money is when you purchase an Esumsoft pr...

I specifically said "as an experiment" -- if it works, then we can try moving files over.

If you right-click on that banner, there's a "what's this" link which takes you to: https://www.esumsoft.com/products/pop-peeper/banner/ I'm sorry you feel the way that you do. Most people won't even be seeing this banner at the moment, it's only people with a rather significant number of accounts t...

Well, you would need to grant permission to the UAC prompt, but that does not necessitate the need to use an administrator account (granting UAC permissions when prompted and running the installer as admin are not exactly the same). But if you installed PP to a different folder and it has the same p...

Based on your descriptions, it sounds like there's probably a permissions issue. Here's what I would try: 1) Rename the folder where you installed POP Peeper, presumably: C:\Program Files (x86)\POP Peeper\ to C:\Program Files (x86)\POP Peeper-old\ 2) As your regular user (not the admin account), re-...

If you right-click on the POPPeeper.exe file and select "Properties" -- do you see an option to "unblock" it on the bottom? If so, press it and things should work.

Otherwise, what are your settings for the following 2 options:
under main menu: Tools / Options / Storage
- Ini Location
- Data Path
