It would seem that since the last update of Thunderbird that the layout has changed and not working fully. The Write, Reply and Forward do longer work. If I double click on the message in the In Box it will not open I have to open in a new tab. Any help to solve this problem would be appreciated. I can receive emails but cannot either reply or write any.

Regards,

Stephen Terry

Start Thunderbird in safe mode. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/safe-mode-thunderbird Uninstall Lightning via the Add-Ons Manager. Restart Thunderbird. Download Lightning for your language and re-install it in case it's needed. https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/calendar/lightning/candidates/4.7-candidates/build1/win32/
