In looking at all the people that have the same issues, I would have to say that the problem stems with the file handling. I have made numerous attempts at fixes both on Mozilla Support and outside on the net. I changed some accounts from POP to iMAP thinking that was the issue but nothing changed.Ħ. I have deleted hundreds of older emails thinking it was that but that did not do anything.ĥ. I have stopped the saving feature which slowed the frequency of the stalling but did not eliminate the problem.Ĥ. It still happens in safe mode with no add-on activated.ģ. I do not have AVG, only malware bytes and windows defenderĢ. Here is all that I have tried with nothing working.ġ.
When will Mozilla realize that it is in the upgrade and find the problem!?
From day one of the 38 update everything changed.
I have been using Thunderbird for years with all the same folders and add ons with NO problem. I have done everything suggested here to do and nothing fixes it. I now call it the Box to Hell (B2H - call it whatever you want but I am damned every time it pops up!) Ever since the upgrade of Thunderbird to 38.* I have had nothing but problems with Thunderbird stalling (spinning wheel waiting), a 'Mozilla Thunderbird (not responding)' in the header bar, the TB application window whiting out, and eventually the Box to Hell - a small box popping up asking if I want to - close the program, waited for it to resolve itself, or check the internet and then close.
