I applied a now-archived solution previously submitted. It made the folder label disappear from the list. I went into subscribe again and the now missing folder label is there. I had checked subscribe, but it still is not visible when I open TB again.

What is happening to have this assortment of my extensive sub-folder list of messages to become unavailable to me? Can I access what I have pout into these folders through web-mail? I have not seen how to do that.

As you can see in the attached files, the "Daytimer' sub-folder is visible and checked in the Subscribe list, but it is gone in the Folders list. It was in the Folders list before I tries to fix it!

I use TB 115.9.0 (64-bit) on a Windows 10 machine.

If all else fails, you can use the setting in server settings > advanced to tell Thunderbird to show all folders but deselecting the option to show only subscribed folders.
