Is there a known issue with attaching .docx files in Thunderbird? TB freezes every time I try to attach one. I finally re-saved it as a .doc file and was able to send it with no problem.

What is your anti-virus software?

What is the size of your Drafts folder?

Try to start Windows 10 in safe mode with networking enabled.

Does the problem go away?
