My computer was updated last night (January 10th 2019) and this morning after restarting the computer, when trying to open Thunderbird, I got an error message stating mozglue.dll is not suitable for Windows or contains an error. When I look at the file mozglue.dll, I see it has been changed on January 10th 2019. Does any of you have the same problem? Do you know how to solve this?

just reinstall from getthunderbird.com.

I would guess you just got a bad update. Perhaps something on your computer interfered with the update so it did not go as planned. A reinstall it the easiest no pain way to fix this I think

Thank you. I should have thought of that, but I was afraid I might lose my saved emails. But it worked like a charm and I didn't lose any emails.
