Outlook has a way of seizing the status of default email program when you don't expect it. Try this: download and run the full TB installer, choosing the version and 32 or 64 bit that matches your current installation. This wont affect your data in the profile folder. During setup, select TB as the default email. After the install completes, restart the computer (important). Do Office and Adobe apps now send files through TB?

Hello there. Manson.


Sometimes it is that after an update certain programs run side by side and can cause malfunctions.


It would be useful to quietly restart the PC to renew the thunderbird program.

and also re-install may also do this with the anti-virus program that you have.

also temporarily disable the add ons.

and start up in safe mode.

please contact us again after this.


we are here to help you.
