My Thunderbird has started showing all emails 'threaded'

Is there a way to 'sort by' unthreaded, globally, so i don't have to go into every folder of every email address and click 'unthreaded'?

Thunderbird has been doing that since 102 was released. This URL has the full info on changing on a folder by folder approach, or set default for NEW folders. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/message-threading-thunderbird

Thanks

Thats a pain, i have about 150 folders to go through and change 1 by 1 then

Why do they insist on changing things? This is why i seldom do updates, just messes up what i have.

Use this 'quickie' approach. Yes, I agree they really shot themselves in the foot on this.

To set many *existing* folders, follow these steps: (I creates a crude video that walks through the steps at 

   https://davidkirk.org/SettingDefaultFolderView.mp4  that demonstrates the following steps:

  First, highlight a folder that you have set to unthreaded	
  In the Message List view, in the column header, on the far right, open the options button that shows    
   context menu. :
  At the very bottom is the option:
  -> "Apply current view to..."
  -> "Folder and its children..."
  -> Hover over an account
  -> In the next menu don't select a folder. Instead select the account name itself.
