Freaking Out! I accidentally shutdown my computer (long story) with Thunderbird open. I had just installed it earlier this week and had never closed it or anything (it requested an update but I had not done it yet. I tried to cancel the shutdown but my computer became unresponsive. Eventually, it shutdown and then installed windows updates. When I logged back in, thunderbird would not load initially. After installing the updates, it finally did. I am worried that I may have lost some data/emails! Unfortunately, I do not remember exactly how many emails were originally there. Is there any way to see if any of my emails were deleted or if any data was lost? I would be grateful for any help. Thank you!
