You can check to make sure your saved folders are still on the computer by clicking on the Thunderbird menu icon and select Help, then Troubleshooting Information. The Troubleshooting Information, about the 4th item down in the first section, has a link to your Profile Folder. You can click on the Open Folder button to see the location of the folder and the files it contains.
If you do not want automatic updates go into Options and turn it off. I doubt that it was a Thunderbird update that caused this. Do you use CCleaner software?
If you continue to use email as a permanent storage, a really bad idea by the way, you should consider doing backups. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/profiles-where-thunderbird-stores-user-data
