A Program occupied all disk space, I didnt noticed. I deleted some emails (tens, hundreds) in Thunderbird and after that I closed Thunderbird. No error message showed. After that I noticed that there is no disk space. I started Thundebird again (still no disk space) and TB look like new instalation, no emails, no email accounts. I freed some disk space, but the problem remains.

On the disk seems all data are correct (about 20GB, about 12 email accounts), maybe only some files are corrupted?

I have backup a month old.

Is it possible some files restore from the old backup? Which one/ones? Or rebuild?

Windows 8.1

Seems prefs.js was corrupted. This manual helped: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Recovering_a_profile_that_suddenly_disappeared#Corrupt_or_empty_prefs.js
