Steps to reproduce:

Under PREFERENCES / GENERAL / UPDATES, click Show Update History. Look at the first (default) entry, or highlight (select) any of the others.

Actual results:

The colour of the highlighting is the same as the text for the DETAILS link, thus making it invisible. The link is still active & working, and it becomes (barely) visible when moused over, but one doesn't know it is there for the current (or selected) update.
In the unlikely instance of a new installation with just one update, there would be only the default first entry -- or nothing if no updates -- so the issue won't be evident.

Expected results:

The DETAILS links should always be visible. I suggest toning down the highlight colour to a paler blue, and leave or change the colour of the link to the darker standard "TB Blue".

This seems to be a latent display bug that persists right up to present TB 102 Release and probably later. Does no harm, can be classified as lowest priority -- the links are always accessible and DO work -- but should be fixed if time permits. :)

Is this still seen in version 115 or newer?

Flags: needinfo?(dannyfox)

Can't say about v115 or newer. I'm currently running 102.13.0 (64-bit) which is working fine generally, but the issue is still present there today even though much newer than a year ago. (Sorry, I don't have a machine to test betas or dailies, so I pretty much stick to the releases...)

And just for clarity...
This is a newly-installed TB 102 on a new Lenova 64-bit Windows 10 ThinkPad, with email files imported cleanly from the previously-faulty installation on our Windows 7 laptop. Seems most of what I had complained about in TB 102 has been fixed or in any case now works properly. (For example, I have not seen any random automatic downloads of duplicate emails since installation in early June.) Meanwhile my Dell tower is still running TB 98.13.1 on 32-bit Windows 7 and runs as well as it ever did -- but its days are numbered.

Thanks for the info

Version: unspecified → Thunderbird 102

Version 115?

Flags: needinfo?(dannyfox)

Works fine now (tested in 115.11.0). They changed the highlight colour to grey, so the "Details" link in blue still shows well.

Thanks
