And it is rather annoying that the report does not tell me which addon is misbehaving either. I do know it runs just fine without any addons enabled so hence, the problem lies with a buggy addon and I'm left in the dark about which one.

Thanks.

Additional details:

  • Operating system: Windows (please specify your Windows version if known)
  • The issue started on August 25, 2026.
  • Thunderbird becomes unresponsive shortly after startup.
  • A “System Integration” prompt appears before Thunderbird becomes unresponsive.
  • I cannot click any buttons once Thunderbird becomes unresponsive.
  • I tested both available profiles (“default” and “default-esr”) using the Profile Manager, but the same issue occurred with both profiles.
  • I also started Thunderbird in Troubleshoot Mode with all add-ons disabled, but the issue still occurred.
  • I can force-close Thunderbird through Windows when it becomes unresponsive.
  • I have not deleted or modified any Thunderbird profile files because I want to avoid losing existing email data.
  • The profile containing my email data appears to be “default-esr”.

I would appreciate any guidance on how to identify the cause of this issue and restore Thunderbird without losing my existing emails.

Yesterday morning my Firefox was updated to version 157 and ever since it reopened it has crashed too many times to count. Sometimes it will run for 20-30 minutes, but then it will crash repeatedly in just a few moments or a few minutes after reporting the crash and restarting. I already tried reinstalling the current version with no success in solving the problem. I could not even keep it from crashing while trying to type this question, so I am now using MS Edge as my browser until I can find a fix for Firefox.

I wanted to share a specific startup freeze loop I encountered today.

I had a moderate number of tabs open in Thunderbird when I quit the app. I had set up a single IMAP message filter yesterday to automatically move incoming automated text alerts into their own folder (causing about 50–60 small emails arriving in quick succession this morning at startup).

The Problem: Upon starting up, the app almost immediately choked and became unresponsive. Unlike the freeze report by another user here on August 21st.

My Workaround: After a few attempts to open Thunderbird I managed to break the freeze loop by instantly closing the single open UI window right at startup. This kept T-bird running invisibly in the macOS background. It seemed that without the need of rendering the UI, the background engine successfully completed all the IMAP syncing and filtering tasks.

When I brought Thunderbird back to the foreground, all my open tabs instantly "snapped", and the app has been perfectly stable since. I haven't tried to replicate this due to the fear of breaking the current stability.

Has anyone else recently noticed Thunderbird freezing under similar conditions lately? Let us know if this workaround helps you get past your startup freezes too!
