Thunderbird for Windows stuck on startup
Thunderbird for Windows stuck on startup. The status bar shows "Looking up imap.google.com...". The title bar shows "Home - Mozilla Thunderbird (Not responding)". When I close Thunderbird, it gives me a "Not responding" dialog and then says that it is reporting the problem to Microsoft.
This problem has been happening for the last few weeks but this is the first opportunity I've had to tackle the problem. I've done a few searches but nothing pops up for this problem. Any help would be appreciated.
Windows 10 Pro. Latest version of Thunderbird for Windows as of a few weeks ago. The problem was happening before I upgraded the software to the latest version.

What version number? Which antivirus software?
Thank you for your reply.
I can't find the current version because the app is stuck and won't respond on startup. It's the latest production version as of a few weeks ago. This problem started happening a few weeks ago. I upgraded to the latest version in an attempt to fix the problem but the problem persists. I tried starting in "safe mode" but app gets stuck on the same problem and I can't figure out how to get past this. The problem appears to be when accessing my the GMail account but nothing has changed on that account for over a year. I have no antivirus other the built-in Windows Defender. Thank you for your assistance.
