Thunderbird Message Toolbar Icon Buttons Missing Text Labels

Hi Folks,

I must have accidentally hit a wrong key or something, as now I am missing the text captions that used to display just to the right of the icon buttons for selecting Thunderbird's message options.

Here are some screen shots. The first one shows my toolbar, the second one is an example from somewhere online. The circled sections show the "unread messages" button which I use the most.

How do I get that text back? I'm using the latest version of Thunderbird on Windows 10.

Thanks! :)

Place mouse at top. Right-click and select 'customize' and on that pane, at the bottom, you can make that change.

Oops. Wrong toolbar. Drag the right side of window to make screen larger and text will appear.
