How to force remove a previous theme
I need to completely remove a previous theme due to parts of it still remaining and interfering with the proper display of any new theme installed. It is no longer showing up under add-ons so I need some ideas how to force remove everything to go back to original theme. Thank You.

Hello JimAZtec,
Could you be a bit more specific about how this old theme is interferring with your new theme ? If it's no longer listed on the add-ons page, it should be completely gone .... Could it be that maybe you are using a (custom) Windows theme ?
This was a custom Thunderbird theme to mimic Windows Mail and was installed 4 years ago. It was manually installed from an xpi file.

And what makes you think that it's interferring with your new theme ? What happens ?
Same dark colors and layout, no changes when another theme is installed except the status bar.

I'm just going to have to save my data and uninstall/re-install and see if that fixes it.
Just to make sure that you haven't missed a step :

That didn't change anything.
What puzzles me : you remove the old theme; it is no longer listed in the add-ons manager - how could it possibly interfer with your new theme ?
Could the problem be that new theme ? Maybe uninstall and re-install like you suggested, would be a good idea .....
