I have used TB for years but now when I get new mail TB locks up and freezes until the emails have loaded. Tried opening in safe mode and that did not help.

- First, try disabling Allow Windows Search to search messages in Tools > Options > Advanced panel > General tab.

- If that does not help, try disabling Search Indexing in Windows, also known as Indexing Options. See here for more info.
