Hello there


Thunderbird is freezing in this case hanging. You can try to start up in safe modus if the program is working then there might be a theme or add on that is not working. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/troubleshoot-mode-thunderbird

If problems are more likely that other steps are needed try to use this subject : Rebuild the global database , go to the profile folder and delete the global~messages~db.sqlite.file and restart Thunderbird. That rebuilds that database.

Reinstalling Thunderbird can work there too. Backup Thunderbird s profile folder reinstall the program. Download that latest version of Thunderbird. Restore that profile and or setup that recent account at Thunderbird again.

Use the latest version of Thunderbird and try to download from trusted download points. https://www.thunderbird.net/en-US/desktop/
