Mozilla Thunderbird crashes after updating from 142 to 143. When I install a clean version, it only crashes when importing account settings; when I import only email content, it works fine. Can you help?

Same here, my TB is crashing everytime. If I open a link, change folder, there is no specific reason. Windows 10, recent install. No problems 2 days ago. Now I just can not use it for more than 5 minutes.

Tryed install it on a Windows 10 VM (VirtualBox), clean install, it's crashing too, even with a new Profile (empty).

I've solved it. Well, almost.

After several attempts, I resolved it with the following:

- I cleaned all traces of Thunderbird. - I installed version 143. - I created a new profile. - I imported the email settings from the copy I made of the original profile's directory contents. - I had to enter the passwords for all the accounts. - I imported the email contents, which were stored in a local folder.

It wasn't ideal, but it partially worked.
