Using windows 10. Thunderbird worked fine this morning then this afternoon it freezes when going to attach a file to an email. You can however go to the file and choose send to mail recipient and it will send it that way. Why did it start freezing for no reason?

Do you have a security program scanning outgoing mail, and possibly that program updated and became incompatible with TB? Or, do you have any TB add-ons that may have updated recently?

For some reason the email just started working again on it's own. Thank you though.
