I have been noticing now for the past couple of months everytime thunderbird seemingly installs an update, it freezes my thunderbird application and becomes "not responsive" - I am unable to close it down or kill the task in win10, the only solution is to restart my laptop, this really is unacceptable. What or why is this happening please ? Thunderbird used to have a smooth background update process - not now. ver 102.1.2

  • Please start *Windows'* in safe mode with networking enabled

win10 https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/12376/windows-10-start-your-pc-in-safe-mode

  • Still in Windows safe mode, start Thunderbird in Troubleshoot mode

Does problem go away?
