Minutes ago, I got an update popup for Thunderbird. I approved it, then closed and tried to restart. Nothing happens. I rebooted the CPU; still nothing. Thoughts? I've obviously installed numerous updates without any anomalies.

Thanks for any information.

Cheers, Ron

Please tell us, does starting in safe mode help?

Thunderbird will not open in safe mode either. I get notice that it has crashed.
