When Thunderbird opens it crashes when it reaches the checking folders stage. This seems to be happening to more computers in the company every day and we are unable to resolve the issue. The e-mails work fine on other mail clients so I believe this is a Thunderbird issue.

Please see the crash report below.

Please post the crash id number...it starts with bp-

more options

I can't see a crash id starting bp. But the text file created has the following ID for the latest crash. 1581089265

more options

There would be a crash id if you have the option selected to send crash reports. Perhaps it is not set. Check this: Menu app icon > Options > 'Data Choices' Crash reporter. select checkbox 'Enable crash reporter'

When the crash is sent as a report: The crash report id would be located here: Help > Troubleshooting Information Scroll down to section 'Crash Reports for the Last 3 days' section.

Hi, I cannot open the program as it crashes straight away. The crash number I’ve posted was found the in crash folder so I think it will be correct.

It will not open in safe mode either as it still tries to check for emails and then crashes.

more options

If you open this location:

C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Thunderbird\Crash Reports\submitted

you will see text files named after the crash ID, bp-02c.....

AppData is hidden by default.

If you can't open TB, see if you can when Windows is running in safe mode. That will test if a startup app such as antivirus is causing the crashes.

The bug mentioned in the report refers to another bug that has Access Denied, but the other bug suggests a workaround: delete the cache files in

C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Thunderbird\Profiles\8characterstring.default

Note this is in AppData\Local, not Roaming. On my setup, the two folders with today's date are cache2 and startupCache. Move those two folders out of AppData and see if TB launches without crashing.

Hi, That worked for one machine. I get the same problem with a windows 10 machine.

Crash ref: bp-6e002786-9ca4-4720-9d86-da3f70200208

Would you be able to check this as well please.

Much appreciated

The W10 crash refers to this bug, which is so far unresolved. The duplicate bug suggests it may be caused by accounts with some providers that have folders named with a /. Who are the mail providers on this computer? You might be able to avoid a crash on startup by starting TB like: press Windowskey+R, type thunderbird.exe -offline

Hi, Can you confirm if this crash ID is related? if not can you offer any support?

Crash ID: bp-dcbec83c-3f3a-4130-a8a8-14c020200220

It's the same crash, although this time with 68.5 on Windows 7. The bug report doesn't indicate any clues to the source, but it might help if you can provide the information requested in my previous reply, mail providers and starting offline. Deleting the cache folders seemed to work before - did you try that?

That bug has since been fixed. If you still crash, please post a new support request https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/new/thunderbird/form
