Use CCleaner & turn off message pane
Another user complained about the message pane being turned on every time he opened Thunderbird. Even though he used F8 to turn it off, he had to do it every time.
The answer was that using Ccleaner messes with Thunderbird settings.
I use Ccleaner and I want to continue to use it. What can I change in Ccleaner (skipping certain files etc.) that will allow me to use it and still have the message pane stay turned off in Thunderbird?

Turning off Ccleaner for Thunderbird certainly would do it but I'd rather not do that. In answer to a similar question another user posted that file session.json is used by Thunderbird to remember settings from session to session. Ccleaner deletes this file so Thunderbird doesn't remember that the user wants message pane off.
I told Ccleaner to exclude this file. I closed Thunderbird, I ran Ccleaner, and then I reopened Thunderbird and the message pane was gone.
For those of you who wish to use Ccleaner & Thunderbird this seems to fix the F8 message pane issue.
