Suddenly Thunderbird won't start

Thunderbird won't start. The framework is there, but "No message found" is displayed and TB is not responding. So I did a backup copy of the current profile, then downloaded and installed (with "Upgrade") 128.7.1esr.exe But the result is the same. What next?

This may have been due to an automatic upgrade to my Windows 11? See attached image.

Do Help > Troubleshoot Mode

Thanks for the suggestion, but launching Tbird in the Troubleshoot Mode got the same result. There is still no opportunity to use the interface. I used the following steps for "not running". What else can I do?

To troubleshoot Thunderbird, you can follow these steps: If Thunderbird is already running, click ≡ > Help > Troubleshoot Mode... and in the Restart in Troubleshoot Mode prompt, choose Restart. If Thunderbird is not running, hold down the Shift key while starting Thunderbird, hold down the option key while starting Thunderbird, or run this command from Terminal: thunderbird -safe-mode. Start the Thunderbird program and open Thunderbird Menu. Now, click on Help >> Troubleshoot Mode. Select “Restart” to start the “Troubleshoot mode”. Next, select “Reset Toolbars & Controls” or “Disable all add-ons” as per preference.
