My Thunderbird crash whenever I tried to "save as" an email, save the attachment of an email, attach a file to an outgoing email.

Every time I did the mentioned, Thunderbird prompts the normal window of my laptop's folders, but it disappear in a second with the Thunderbird crash and quit.

This situation happened after I installed MS365 on my laptop.

I did try the below: 1. Reset attachment directory - mail.compose.attach.dir 2. Run in trouble shooting mode 3. Repair folder index 4. Clear cache

Anyone can help please?

I became a THunderbird user recently to help me transfer e-mails from one system (e-mails sent to my e-mail address being collected by Gmail using POP3) - I have a gmail.com address too which shows all the e-mails in the same Inbox. Google are withdrawing support for Pop3. I am moving to Hostinger which happily collects and displays all my emails on its Webmail service. Thunderbird is a great tool for moving e-mails fro Inbox (and al other folders) from the Gmail to Hostinger. But yesterday it crashed and wouldn't restart = white windows says at the top 'not responding = and Windows Task Manager shows me Thunderbird still seems to be talking to one of my accounts and has 6 other tasks open. I stopped those tasks and closed Task Manager. I have uninstalled and re-installed but it comes back with the same symptoms and same tasks running. How do I stop this and get it back properly again

I have Thunderbird 146.0.1 on a Win11 system, using POP. This setup has been in place from Windows 7, apart from the Thunderbird client version, and has worked up till the end of 2025. About October last year, I opened Thunderbird, and whenever I selected an email, or a number of emails, Thunderbird seems to get stuck trying to process something. The moving blue bar on the bottom right hand side of Thunderbird shows activity, but never stops. Taskmanager shows that Thunderbird is running, and that something is happening, but I cannot do anything with Thunderbird. I can only shutdown Thunderbird using Taskmanager. I have Norton AV installed, but I have turned it off, and the problem persists. I have removed all the emails from my inbox, and moved them to local files, and the problem persists. I have deleted and recreated my profile, and the problem persists. I have deleted the Thunderbird client and reinstalled it, and the problem persists. It doesn't matter if I select one, or twenty, emails, Thunderbird gets locked whilst processing something, and the problem persists. There is no issue with my Email provider, as I have checked using a webmail client. Emails are being processed and delivered from my email provider, and are received by Thunderbird. I would appreciate any suggestions as to the cause, or more importantly, a possible remedy. I have successfully used Thunderbird for many years, and I actively support them, so I am very keen to resolve this problem. Thank you in anticipation.

Ich habe Thunderbird auf meinem MacBook Air von Anfang 2015 geladen auf dem MacOS Monterrey läuft. Sobald ich einen eMail Account einrichten möchte stürzt Thunderbird ab. Was muss ich tun, um diese Abstürze zu vermeiden?

Hi - I'm trying to install Thunderbird on my mac to get away from a google workspace account. I've downloaded it a couple times and it crashes immediately after the login screen. Same thing in Troubleshoot mode. It's a work computer so it might have something installed preventing the desktop app from working. Thanks for any help you can offer.

Hello, Here is what I consider a new bug in TB. It goes this way: While I am reading a message in the message pane of the standard window (not in its own window), if messages arrive (with a small ding for me), the message pane I am reading goes BLANK and the message I was reading is deselected. I have to reselect the message I am reading and scroll down to where I was. This behavior is very annoying and did not exists in previous versions.

I hope this helps. Thank you , Alain Damlamian

Right after typing my email address and pressing "Continue", Thunderbird crashes. I wanted to give it a try after many years of not using it, but then it crashes right at the start.

Thunderbird 145.0 (64 bit) with Windows 11 Pro.

In the message editor window, new message or reply or forward, when I want to insert a hyperlink using either CTRL+K or via the Insert menu, a popup window to insert the link into does not appear, and the write windows hangs. Becomes unresponsive. The only way to close it is by ending the task in Task Manager. I notice a crash helper in the Thunderbird group in Task Manager. Everything is on 0% CPU though.

What went on before this is that I modified the property editor.link_color in the config editor (because links are not readable in dark mode, but that's a different story). I then did reset it to default and restarted TB, then pc and TB, that did not help.

In troubleshooting mode, there is no problem. In normal mode, I deleted the only plugin I had (a theme) I cleared cache, refreshed Thunderbird, to no avail. It's not set up to generate crash reports yet.

I have TB on another machine (W10 Pro), I can copy my profile folder over quite easily.

Any suggestions please?

(I'm on Central European time, it may be a day or so before I respond to replies from the US.)

Confused. Version 144.0.1 | Released October 16, 2025 Says 32 bit. I thought I downloaded 64 bit.

Problem: Freezes when I click anywhere on TBird desktop

How do I address the freezing problem?

Thanks Robert

Ich habe versehentlich mehrere hundert Mails geöffnet, anstatt diese zu löschen. Nun startet TB145 unter Windows 10 nicht mehr richtig. Es friert ein, auch ist die Menüleiste nicht mehr erreichbar. Ich habe auch den abgesicherten Modus Probiert nichts geht. Was muss ich tun um das zu beheben?

Hi

I am using the latest TB build, 144.0.1and have only the British dictionary as an extension, no themes.

Occasionally TB will hang when launched and the Windows event viewer will show this....(added image)_

The friendly xml log within the event viewer...

AppName thunderbird.exe

 AppVersion 144.0.1.0 
 ProcessId 0x6234 
 StartTime 0x1dc51956edcf231 
 TerminationTime 5 
 ExeFileName C:\Program Files\Mozilla Thunderbird\thunderbird.exe 
 ReportId f3ad169f-c629-4357-85ae-7db29d0541f1 
 PackageFullName  
 PackageRelativeAppId  

HangType Cross-process

as noted, this only happens when the email client is launched and will not happen each time. I have tried without the dictionary, as it is so random it can take a while to occur, but that does not seem to make a difference.

I am using Windows 11 25h2

Thanks

I recently transferred my email account to The Messaging Company (big mistake I think) because my provider (Exetel) suggested them when they stopped hosting an email service. I then started having trouble receiving emails that I knew were sent and I thought that maybe my old emails were kept on the server too long and were taking up too much space on the server so I went into Thunderbird to change the settings to delete emails that had been on the server for 2 weeks. Thunderbird is now locked onto the Account Settings page and I can't get out of it. As soon as I click on the page I get the "Thunderbird not responding" message so I close the program. I've tried starting Thunderbird in safe mode with no result. I downloaded the latest version and reinstalled Thunderbird but as soon as I start the program it takes me straight into the "frozen" Account Settings page that I can't get out of. I have gone into The Profiles folder and I've included a screenshot of what's there. The latest profile was created when I tried to change the Account Settings. Can I delete that profile and go back to the one created on 9/6/2025?
