tried uninstalling Thunderbird and reinstalled and it did not work. Everything worked fine until the latest update.

Does it help if you open Tools/Options/Advanced/General/Config. editor, right-click the preference print_printer, Reset?

Reinstalling will not help :)

Are you using version 52.2.0 on Windows 10? What happens if you go back to version 52.1.1? https://releases.mozilla.org/pub/thunderbird/releases/52.1.1/win32/en-US/

No still the same result. It looks like it tries to load as it screen flashes for a millisec then closes.

Ok I did try that on the newer version and it did not work, but with putting in the older version and doing the reset it did work.

Thank you
