Thunderbird Setup 78.3.3.exe does not work or install. 2nd thoughts on "TB tells me every day it must be 'Updated' but then states the computer must re-started."
Someone made a suggestion (thank you Matt) but can't find the that response here. Matt said this might help:
Restart Thunderbird (TB) with add-ons disabled (Thunderbird Safe Mode). On the Help menu, click on "Restart with Add-ons Disabled". I assume you would then try the update it keep asking for.
This was done as I was able to start TB and just tried that. On the help Menu and then on the About tab: It said: Thunderbird 78.3.3 (32-bit) Release notes.
So 78.3.3. was installed but TB tells me every day it must be 'Updated' but then states the computer must re-started. If I don't, TB simple closes. If I do restart and try again to update: TB closes and the endless computer restarts begins again. I would guess TB see's a need to update but it doesn't really and goes into a software loop (with no correct answer). I tried to contact a person at Mozilla/Thunderbird and can find no human help.

Perform a clean re-installation as follows:
- Uninstall Thunderbird (do not worry, this does not remove your profile data). Reboot IF prompted.
- Go to C:\Program Files and C:\Program Files (x86) and delete the Mozilla Thunderbird folder if it exists in either of those locations.
- Run the setup executable (exe) file. If all goes well, Tbird should start without a fuss and not nag you about the update.
