How can I fix this fatal error?

I cannot use Thunderbird anymore.

To use the email system I have to log in to Swsscom and use ther email system.

So, you can still contact me: [email removed from public]

Please help!

This probably happened with an update? Try this: 1. download latest version of TB. 2. Delete the installed version, e.g., c:\program files\thunderbird (Do NOT do an UNINSTALL) 3. Install the new version. The installed new version may need help finding your profile. If so, 

 - click the Windows icon on task bar
 - type  run and press enter
 - that opens a command line. Enter    thunderbird.exe   -p   and press enter
 - that opens a panel of your profiles. select the profile and continue to TB
