Today Thunderbird freezes when loading messages.

matt178

Starting today, Thunderbird freezes during the "loading messages" process. I get a Windows hourglass and Windows tells me Thunderbird is "not responding."

Task Manager shows TB running but not taking up very many CPU cycles.

I suspect a damaged database, but what do I know?

Each of the tabs above is an email/message that was open the last time I ran TB.

I have no control over TB as it 'spins.'

I cannot find my TB version because TB is frozen. But it is fairly recent.

I need help.

Solved. I deleted all of the MSF files and restarted TB. TB runs now, which is good, but I seem to have lost all of my filters, built over many years, which is bad.

But I have TB email service again.
