Thunderbird Tools menu has Run Filter on Folders and Delete Mail Marked as Junk greyed out.
Thuderbird was working fine until the latest update was applied. Now the following has occured.
1. Several folders and their subfolders and emails have vanished. 2. None of the message filters that were working are working. Yes the fileres are enabled checked and "Run selected filter(s) on:" is set to the inbox connected to my email address. 3. The Tools-> Run Filter on Folders is greyed out 4. The Tools-> Delete Mail Marked as Junk is greyed out
I have seached the web for help and I have looked for settings that may need to be checked or set but have found nothing that helped.
Thank you in advance for your assistance.

Thunderbird's menu is context sensitive so unless you see folders below all the mail type functions like run filters are disabled.
1. Several folders and their subfolders and emails have vanished.
That can occur when the folder tree.json file has issues and deleting it from the profile folder with Thunderbird not running will often fix the issue. However in the case of IMAP accounts folder for account that are not accepting connections also disappear until they can be reinitialized from the servers canonical store.
2. None of the message filters that were working are working. Yes the fileres are enabled checked and "Run selected filter(s) on:" is set to the inbox connected to my email address.
What does your filter log show when you select run now?

The following is fairly normal standard diagnostic steps, other than the request for information. But if your situation is sort of randomly messed up it does sound like an antivirus toolbar might be behind the issues. They think they can write code for Thunderbird and force feed it, but it is rarely compatible for more than one version

After going into troubleshooting mode and coming back out, filters are working as is the delete Junk.
However, the missing folders are still missing.

As you accounts are POP accounts, use the troubleshooting information to open the profile folder. Close Thunderbird In the file manager widow that opened to the profile folder content, locate and delete foldertree.json and restart Thunderbird.
That files is essentially a cache of the tree of folders on the left. Deleting it forces Thunderbird to go look on the hard disk and find then all over again so it will slow the startup the first time. But it is usually a sure fire cure for those computer glitches that just make no sense.
