Well it took me an age looking at that to actually see that the folder pane is turned off.

View menu > layout > folder pane should fix that.

Hello there Daniken. We have read your message. We try to help you.



Is there still a folder pane? If there is still a folder pane. View- folder-all. Folders will appear.


a another option is move your mouse to the left margin of the window and when it turns into a double headed arrow, click and drag to the right.





If you mis a button in Thunderbird menu.


1. Open a new email messages using the, “Write” button. 2. If the menu bar across the top of your new email is visible, click on “View”. If it is not visible, tap the, “Alt” button on your keyboard to display the menu, then click on, “View”. 3. In the “View” menu, hover your mouse pointer over, “Toolbars”. 4. In the, “Toolbars” menu, click on, “Composition Toolbar” to turn it on. You should now have a composition toolbar with the, “Send” button at the top of your email message.


Send me a message if nothing of this works.


Greetings Firefox volunteer.

Thank you for your offer to help, День сумо.

The proper display with Folder Pane does appear while the program loads but as soon as the load is finished it is replaced with [ > Added Image ] and there seems to be no way to recover the Folder Pane.

TB is fully functional without the Folder Pane by use of the Menu Bar but inconvenient. Also, if this happens to others, they may be less able to work using the Menu Bar.

Thanks again

I am so embarrassed. Thought every button was pushed. Thanks Matt
