My Thunderbird opens with only one of my four email accounts showing and there is no means of bringing the other 3 up!

more options

I have not opened Thunderbird on this computer in a week. When I just did, it first downloaded some updates then, when the inbox came up it showed only one of 4 email accounts I have always had. There is no means that I can see of bringing up the other 3 accounts as it use to show. The accounts are there because when I click on "get messages" it shows them, apparently downloads waiting emails but still the program does not have a way to get to see what is in the emails. Never had this problem before; it always worked perfectly.

Did you lose the Folder Pane on the left side? If so, from the Menu Bar select View-Layout-Folder Pane

If your Menu Bar is hidden press the alt key to make it appear.

If this is not your issue post a screenshot to show what you are seeing.
