I cannot open Mozilla Thunderbird from Start Menu or Desk Top Icon. I also cannot get to program un control panel. Therefore I cannot open any user emails.

I have emails that I do not want to lose. Will they be there if I reinstall?

I am suggesting you reinstall the program, not delete you mails.

yes.

Install replaces the Thunderbird program directory. But Thunderbird data is stored separate, in a different directory, from the Thunderbird program
