Addresses Don't Autopopulate or Auto Suggest contacts anymore.
W10 - Thunderbird 78.9.0 (64-bit) I'm a tech. Assume the obvious. I used it with 8 email accounts, I've used thunderbird since what 2008?
I've been dealing with this issue for months now. Addresses Don't Autopopulate or Suggest ANY contacts anymore. Yes, I've tried Reinstalling the whole program. Yes, I've tried Safe-Mode. I have ZERO Extensions. But I did just install Cardbook to see if that could fix this problem. No dice. I've read every post I can find on the topic.
I've tried deleting the whole address book contents and adding a contact back manually. No dice.
If I import "all contacts" they import fine: https://i.imgur.com/FsLJZzi.jpg
I've tried importing old address book, which imports fine, but still no auto-populate.
If I delete EVERY single address and address book, and create a new contact, it doesn't show up, nor auto-populate: https://i.imgur.com/PwhJHMy.jpg
If I create a new list and create a new contact with this highlighted, there is no new contact, and still no auto-population: https://i.imgur.com/YemORkg.jpg
Here are my settings: https://i.imgur.com/7PTIIiK.jpg I've played around with everything in here.
Here is some weirdness. If I am in "all contacts" and then go to "collected addresses" the contents appear the same, but when I move my mouse across the contacts, they all disappear like this: https://i.imgur.com/RpfvAuO.jpg
What should I try next?
被選擇的解決方法
Create a new profile from Help/Troubleshooting, about:profiles, add an account (TB can be offline from File/Offline/Work Offline before adding the account if you don't want to download mail), add a couple of test contacts to Personal Address Book, then test the autocomplete. If it works, you can add other accounts and transfer local mail etc. from the old profile.

I assume it's something with my profile, which is 50GB. Some fault in the registry I have to fix? I've tried to clear all the cache and cookies.
These are the file in my directory. Anything askew?

It's not really a fix, but yeah starting all over in this manner will fix it. I'll lose all my settings and preferences but small price to pay I suppose for getting everything working again.
Thanks.
