I have been working fine with Thunderbird, but today it won't start up. It asks my master password, but then it doesn't show the screen with my email accounts / emails.. In task manager I have two lines with Thunderbird, but no activity. I tried to re install (without uninstall as I don't want to lose my emails), but that didn't change anything. Not sure what I can do.
