I make multiple files and when a particular email corresponds with that file I use to be able to drag and drop emails in my inbox to the wanted file. I am not able to drag and drop anymore.

Chosen solution

Restart Thunderbird with add-ons disabled (Thunderbird Safe Mode). On the Help menu, click on "Restart with Add-ons Disabled". If Thunderbird works like normal, there is an Add-on or Theme interfering with normal operations. You will need to re-enable add-ons one at a time until you locate the offender. .
