Updated to 7.15.19 Pro from free, now won't open Thunderbird

Thu Dec 12, 2024 5:30 pm

Hi, joined the pro ranks from free and now MW will not open Thunderbird as it previously did. Had the ridiculous "pirate" language running, found that to change, but nothing I do seems to get my email client to open.
Any help gratefully accepted.

TIA

Yes, that is no problem.... if you have not already restarted since installing any TBird updates, do that now.

Then in MWPro click, Settings>>General>>Washing Mail, click your email application button that shows there, and choose another email program, save changes and test this by clicking the Mail Program button.

Then go back and select Thunderbird from the list again and save changes.

If no good, click, Settings>>General>>Washing Mail, click your email application button that shows there, click, "Use other Application" and "Browse" to the location of the Thunderbird.exe file, this is usually:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Thunderbird\thunderbird.exe

(and you may need to change this to point to wherever your Thunderbird.exe file is located on your hdd)

Click Save to save changes.

How'd that go?
