Setting up new account, crash (I think), no more providers in drop-down menu

I have the same problem, with Thunderbird 52. Any idea how to fix / workaround that?

I have this issue to since I deleted the account in filelink and wanted to set it with a new user/password. The dropdown menue does not show any provider or something else.

Nextcloud for Filelink 1.8 and Thunderbird 60.2.1 (64-bit)

@bipox Thanks for your hint regarding prefs.js!

I checked my prefs.js and found there only one (obviously old) entry:

user_pref("mail.cloud_files.accounts.account1.displayName", "My Nextcloud");

but a complete set should look like this:

user_pref("mail.cloud_files.accounts.account1.displayName", "My Nextcloud");
user_pref("mail.cloud_files.accounts.account1.port", 443);
user_pref("mail.cloud_files.accounts.account1.protectUploads", "Mypassword");
user_pref("mail.cloud_files.accounts.account1.server", "https://myserver.org");
user_pref("mail.cloud_files.accounts.account1.storageFolder", "/Mail-attachments");
user_pref("mail.cloud_files.accounts.account1.type", "Nextcloud");
user_pref("mail.cloud_files.accounts.account1.username", "myusername");

I renamed my original prefs.js for backup, started TB again and the dropdown was shown. After setting up the data for filelink access, looked into the newly created prefs.js and copied the part listed above to my original prefs.js and put it in place again. Restarted filelink and everythink works!

Now dropdown is shown again and filelink for nextcloud works fine!

Thanks!
