"Send" button has disappeared since yesterday's Windows10 updates
I woke up yesterday and found Windows telling me I needed to restart my PC to install two new monthly updates: KB5013942 (Windows 10) and KB5013624 (.NET) and the related servicing stack.
But after I did, I suddenly found that Thunderbird no longer had the ability to send e-mails -- only receive. The paper airplane icon was greyed out.
After checking some other things, I ran the usual uninstall and the ability to send e-mails was back . . . but it's gone again this morning, and the updates seem to be back. And of course Microsoft doesn't have this as a reported issue yet, either. I hope the problem can be fixed soon -- before my update pause ends.
UPDATE: To clarify the paragraph immediately above . . . this morning, the two Windows updates I'd uninstalled were back -- so, after inputting this question, I re-uninstalled them and re-booted the PC . . . but this time it didn't help. I'm STILL not able to send anything from Thunderbird. For everyone else's sake, I hope I'm the only one who has this problem. But for purposes of getting attention to the issue and getting it FIXED, I hope it's appearing on more and more screens. . . .

In compose view, click View>toolbars and click 'composition toolbar' - sometimes it gets turned off.
Thanks, but no luck -- when I open a new message (or try to forward one) and select View Toolbars from that would-be message's window's menu, the Composition Toolbar check is firmly on, as are the checks for the Menu and Status Bars. (I don't use Customize AFAIK, FWIW.)
Hold on -- another significant datum: The "Send" icon does NOT seem to be greyed out when I try to REPLY to a message -- only when I try to forward one, or start a new one. Does that help with a solution? (It at least means I'm not totally incommunicado from my end. . . .)
