"MOVE TO" (Gmail to Local) does nothing since Windows 10 installed.

I very frequently use the sequence ctrl A right click Move to <local folder name> to move e-mails from Gmail storage to my local folders I do similar a sequences, to trash and then delete all Gmail copies (all mail, spam, trash)

Since going to Windows 10, both the Move To and the Delete Selected Messages options, execute very very quickly, but do not move/delete anything, nor do they issue any message, error or otherwise.

Hopefully some setting in Thunderbird, or Windows can resolver this.

Thanks, JLiesner

Using anti virus? does it work in Thunderbird safe mode? (Hold the shift key while starting Thunderbird)

Does work in Safe Mode.

And now, continues to work in 'Normal' Mode.

For the moment, I'm a happy MerryMailman!

Thanks so much Matt,
