I finally allowed Thunderbird to make changes on my computer and now my shortcut no longer works and I can't find Thunderbird to use it. Where is it now?

re :I finally allowed Thunderbird to make changes on my computer

what do you mean 'making changes on my computer'? Thunderbird update ?

The 'thunderbird.exe' program application should be in one of the following locations: If using Win 32 bit: C:\Program Files\Mozilla Thunderbird\ If using win 64bit: C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Thunderbird\

Try this to create a new shortcut. Remove shortcut

Right click on the 'thunderbird.exe' file and select 'create shortcut'. It may say it cannot create it in that location and suggests the desktop, click on ok.

Thanks for your time. I appreciate your assistance. I found the Mozilla Thunderbird folder in Program Files (x86) and there ARE 8 applications listed in that folder but NONE of them are Thunderbird.exe instead there is: crashreporter maintenanceservice maintnanceservice_installer plugin-container plugin-hang-ui updater wow_helper and WSEnable I'm using Windows 10. I can't even find Thunderbird to tell you what version it is. For the last week a pop up has come up every time I used Thunderbird wanting me to allow it to make changes to my computer. I wish I had not finally given in.
