During upgrade to Thunderbird 115, lost Gmail inbox under Inbox list

During the upgrade to Thunderbird 115, my Gmail inbox disappeared under the unified Inbox folder at the top. I can find my Roadrunner accounts listed under the Inbox folder, but to get to my Gmail inbox, I have to go down the pane to the listed accounts, where all of the Gmail folders appear, including the inbox. I want all of my inboxes to appear under the Inbox folder at the top, just like the Thunderbird version I upgraded from. My Gmail account uses IMAP so that it works with Thunderbird.

Try this: highlight the unified inbox entry, right click and select properties, and then select choose. Gmail's inbox should normally appear as an option,

My Thunderbird updated itself to 115.4.1 last week. It was a total mess but I've managed to get it all working fine except I used to have An Inbox for all 5 email accounts which stood at the very top of the folder and accounts list as in tduncan's screenshot above. There is no such Inbox there now.

I have 5 email accounts which, in the previous version before the update, all showed in the what you call Unified Inbox. When I go to View and then Folders and tick the Unified Folders it gets unchecked the moment I close the option down.
