> WFM? Thomas, can you confirm?

Still fails for me exactly as described on latest Daily 83.0a1 (2020-10-19) (64-bit), Win10.
N.B. Pls use ni?thomas8.

My steps and my OS are different from Walt's in comment 7.
This time I have downloaded the .zip, unpacked to C:\test\, and started thunderbird.exe.

STR: (on Win10)

1. download https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/thunderbird/nightly/latest-comm-central/thunderbird-83.0a1.en-US.win64.zip
2. unpack into C:\test\
3. Start C:\test\thunderbird\thunderbird.exe
--> takes ages to react and do anything
--> alert "Important News: This installation of Daily has a new profile..." (confirm that) on top of 3-pane (decribed below)
4. Click [Continue] on "Important News" alert
--> tabs are auto-loaded: "Thunderbird privacy notice" & "Important News: Changes to your Daily profile"
5. select home tab
6. click on "Choose what to setup: Email" button from welcome-account central

Actual result:
- folder pane shown next to first-time account central (should be hidden)
- Email-setup button does nothing
- loads of errors in console, including those mentioned above for the email button.

Expected:
- Email Account Setup Wizard

My steps and my OS are different from Walt's in comment 7, I'm on windows and *not* using a test profile, neither OS test profile, nor TB test profile. This time I have downloaded the .zip, unpacked to C:\test\, and started thunderbird.exe.
I think with "new profile per installation", existing profiles/setups shouldn't have any influence when I install TB into new folder.
