Until today I would use a command line like:

Applications/Thunderbird.app/Contents/MacOS/thunderbird -profile /TargetPATH/4t8rz46z.default/

to start Thunderbird using the profile given in the TargetPATH.

But after todays update 78.2.2, this feature does not work on my mac MacOS 10.15.6

When using this command line, thunderbird opens but without any content.

How to do now a command line start of Thunderbird on a target profile?

I have found a workaround, but I still don’t understand why the initial command did not work.

On MacOS 10.15.7 and TB 78.3.1, the following command Applications/Thunderbird.app/Contents/MacOS/thunderbird does not work. It starts thunderbird, but give the empty screen already given above as an attachment.

Now the following command does work on my computer

cd Applications/Thunderbird.app/Contents/MacOS/ ./thunderbird -profile /TargetPATH/4t8rz46z.default/

If anyone can explain to me what changed after TB 78.2.0 to make those changes... please let me know.

The command need to be read as (not quite sure the two lines were together in my previous answer) :

cd Applications/Thunderbird.app/Contents/MacOS/

./thunderbird -profile /TargetPATH/4t8rz46z.default/
