Currently running Version 91.4.1 (64 Bit). Thunderbird will not display anything in my inbox's message summary, except little square box on the leg side, which is the message select box. When you click on one of the message select boxes, it will display the entire message at the bottom of the screen. Tried all of the things found in Mozolla Support and on the internet to no avail. Also renamed inbox to inboxold. Thunderbird created new inbox. When new messages come in, they only show up in the message summary box with the little squares. Can someone give some recommendations, please?

No one can help you because you have not actually stated what you have tried. Therefore we have no idea what to suggest next.

My personal suggestions is start with "troubleshoot" mode on the help menu and see if you have a bad addon.

The next is to ask if you are using an operating system dark theme. There are all sorts of issues, particularly on macs with dark os themes just not working as they should because of the os elements Thunderbird uses.
