Thunderbird crashes ~30 seconds after startup

more options

I can start Thunderbird but it always crashes very shortly after startup (within about 30 seconds). Here is a crash report:

bp-e6e2f348-5338-458f-a03e-c03b70241224

I have started TB in safe mode, started Windows in safe mode, reinstalled, tried clearing startup cache. Nothing is working. Thanks for your help,

yeah that crash is a shutdown hang. So I think the shutdown is not occurring so you get a crash when you attempt to revive it.

Perhaps check the task manager to see if Thunderbird is already running ( as a process, not necessarily as an application) before you attempt to start it and confirm.

I can confirm that no TB processes are running when I start TB. Still get the same 30-seconds-unresponsive behavior. Memory just keeps climbing. I shut down all processes and start it again and the same thing invariably happens. TB safe mode and Windows safe mode have no effect - still unresponsive after 30 seconds or so.
