When I open Thunderbird, I get two copies running simultaneously
I open Thunderbird and two copies are launched simultaneously -- exact duplicates doing the same things. I can switch from one to the other without a problem and when I close one copy, both close.

ok, I would LOVE to try this but if I close one window (with the 'x') the other one closes too. How am I supposed to access the 'file' menu when the program is closed?

I also get this message on one of the launch screens, but it displays while the program is downloading messages and the program works fine -- I just get two launch screens like I launched the program twice. I click OK and the error message goes away.
"The account joepalazzo@bellsouth.net is being processed. Please wait until processing is complete to get messages."
I suspect at some point you opened a second window. Close one of them using the "X" in the top right. Then do file | exit. Now start thunderbird. hopefully you will have one window only
I would swear to you that I have at least tried that solution twice without success, but I did it again and it worked. The only conclusion I have is that I did the procedure in reverse order or that I closed the wrong window with the "X" first. However, it seems to be working now and I want to thank you for your help very much -- this was one of those . . .

This does not make sense to me. Please tell us... 1. Is your problem gone? 2. If it is not gone, does starting Thunderbird in safe mode help https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/safe-mode ??
