Thunderbird not responding more time than responding

Hi.

I've been using TB for severeal years. Now I'm using version 102.10.1 Windows (x64), but it started freezing (not responding), after the upgrade to 102.10.1, and... after Windows 10 Enterprise upgrade 22H2.

My computer has finished downloading the 22H2 upgrade, and TB also had an information about pending update.

Windows restarted my computer while I was sleeping, and after I wake up, I've started Windows, TB and... suffering began.

It's impossible to use TB, because, it becomes not responding for a while, like a minute, then it starts responding for five or less seconds.

Sometimes, it become unresponsive for 20 or 30 seconds, then it starts responding, but always, always five or less seconds.

One thing that happened in the weekend after leaving the computer on for two days... I started responding again!! It was veeeery good! Uhulll \o/

Then I realized that only my Google Calendars (2 accounts, CalDAV) were inactive. As I wanted to plan some activities, I clicked in "activate" (or enable, I don't know exactly it is in the english version, because in Portuguese (BR) is Ativar), and then all hell breaks lose...

OMG what a regret.

There was been 3 days and Thunderbrid never got better again. The "Not Responding" is back. Like Terminator or Freddy Krueger. It's an endless nightmare.

I've already restarted Windows, unplugged network, restarted Thunderbird and nothing happens...

Now it came to stay. Worst than my mother in law doing a suprise visit to stay for the week.

Help me please.

Humour - I like it!

Calendars with many long term repeating items can cause this to happen. There is no solution coming soon. Suggest you audit your both events and tasks, remove as much as possible and/or set realistic recurrences / ending dates.
