What is the antivirus, and it's settings for TB? Disable TorGuard, VPN if applicable, and AV scanning of the TB profile folder. Better, run Windows in safe mode and test TB.
If there was a general problem with gmail, the forums would be deluged with complaints. The issue is more likely due to the other apps on your system interfering with TB (or any mail app).

What's the authentication method on the incoming and outgoing servers? If it's 'normal password', change it to OAuth2, remove passwords from Saved Passwords in Options, accept cookies in TB Options/Privacy & Security, restart TB, enter the account password in the OAuth window when prompted.
Nada ... I did as you said but the problem remains .... I have 4 gmail accounts all with the same issue :'(

I restarted with Safemode and it solved the problem, thank you very much! It even took away a very irritating "Activate Windows" thingy on the right corner, though my Windows were activated and bought. You can now mark it as solve. Cheers ;)
