I have Windows 10. All was working OK till recently. Now I cannot open attached .doc files as Thunderbird sees them as .pdf and tries to open with Adobe. 2013 Word is happy to open these files but only if I save them to disk first.

This solution is what I started with but did not work. Since then, either Microsoft has fixed something (I have had an avalanche of W10 updates) or I have reset something else. Either way, Thunderbird is back to its usual self.
