At least 60% of the time when I try to open a message or read a message, I get a "not responsive" report. How do I eliminate this response.

Since you are using Windows 10, the problem could be caused by Windows Search.

In Thunderbird: Thunderbird Menu: Options: Advanced section: General tab (If you cannot see the Thunderbird menu, press the Alt key or F10 key on your keyboard to show the menu)

See my screenshot.

Uncheck "Allow Windows Search to search messages"

Quit Thunderbird. Restart Thunderbird.

Try to start Windows in safe mode with networking enabled. - Win10 https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/12376/windows-10-start-your-pc-in-safe-mode

Still in Windows safe mode, start Thunderbird in safe mode. - https://support.mozilla.org/kb/safe-mode
