I'd start over with a new profile. Close Thunderbird, and move or rename your old profile, then start it again and see if it runs.

Or you can use the profile manager to create a second profile to work with.

When you run Thunderbird, it will ask you to set up an account, but ignore that; we're first of all trying to see if it can run.

What's your system? Windows? What version?
