Preventing treading and reloading all my emails

I have had to buy a new desktop to get Windows 11.

I have installed Thunderbird, which I have used for many years, on the new computer. This version threads the incoming emails. I really hate my emails being threaded, it completely confuses me and prevents me doing what I have to do. I have not had this problem ever before. I have searched all the settings and not found any that will stop threading. Because the effect of threading seem permanent I now need all my emails reloaded to get rid of the effects threading.

I uninstalled Thunderbird and reinstalled hoping I could get a fresh start. I got the same old problem back again.

How can I get a version of Thunderbird that does not thread any of my emails ever?

And can I get all my existing emails re loaded?
