Hello I have been trying to get connected to my gmail to download email to my PC. I use Thunderbird on this PC. I also have other OP sys on my PC Linux they connect and download without any issues, It is only on windows 7 that it won't except my password at the gmail site. I have check to app secure setting and tried both ways. Again Linux works but not windows.

Hello Trucker,

I'm sorry to hear that you're having trouble with Thunderbird and Gmail. It's been a number of years since I've used Thunderbird, but I did a little research for this. I just downloaded Thunderbird and was able to use the following link (http://pop2imap.com/...rbird-gmail.php) to connect to my Gmail account from my Windows 10 PC.

I hope this helps!
