I was trying to backup my Thunderbird email to a USB stick and somehow I made a mistake that changed the display format of ALL of my email into some kind of hexidecimal display. The display window shows a header of "All Folders", under that, "Name", under that, my email address "KenEllis@kodachrome.org", under that, Inbox, and under that the hundreds of one line hexidecimal messages such as: "0.0.0.2F.1D27C9CB69149A4.4756B1%40mail.enhanceyourbrain.com/wdseml". Please tell me what to do to restore the display format to readable Email headers.

That is not you email, it a a huge space wasting copy of a part of your messages so windows brain dead search can search your mail. Or at least the wdseml files in your profile do that.

So how did you try and backup your mail.... sounds like we need to know what you did to try and understand what has happened.
