Following a full windows 7 reinstallation, and Thunderbird (now 38.2) runs very slowly unless in Safe Mode.

Turning off hardware acceleration by setting gfx.direct2d.disabled true and layers.acceleration.disabled true using the config editor did not help. Nor did upgrading to the latest display driver (Nvidea GeForce 8500 GT 9.18.13.4181 17 Aug 2015))

I have very few messages in any Thunderbird folder.

I run Avast a/v.

Is there a way to run in permanent safe mode?

Thanks in anticipation

Solved...... Although I thought I had no addons, I did have Cloudmark which needed updating and now it runs fine.

I would like to add that I'm running Windows 32bit, and have no add-ons or extensions installed.

If it can't be fixed, is there a way to set permanent safe mode as a work-around?

thanks, S
