My Thunderbird is not responding whatsoever, i have tried so many of the fixes in the forums however none have worked?

  • Deleted Parent.lock
  • Tried to hold Shift whilst opening app (no response)
  • Ran restore which showed issues however still not opening?

I have tried a few more and searched so much that I cannot remember...

I have 5 email profiles on there and I cannot access emails!!!

I reinstalled thunderbird and that seemed to fix the issue? I was concerned I would lose all my emails etc however after reading this does not happen I tried it...

Start your Computer in safe mode with network support. Then start Thunderbird. Is the problem still there?
