I never asked for it, but Thunderbird is trying to install. I do not want it. It refuses to cancel. I can't use my computer until it does

Thunderbird invited itself to install on my computer without my permission. I cannot cancel it. It ignores my request. I can't open anything else until it leaves. Please help.

Hi, This seems strange. Could you please elaborate more on how "Thunderbird invited itself to install on my computer without my permission".

One case that I can see is if you are part of company that uses Thunderbird and the administrator pushes the program to your computer because of some internal procedures, but this is rear.
