I use Thunderbird for my multiple email accounts. It is a family desktop computer that others use. How do I keep my Thunderbird private? Is there something like a Master PW I could use to open TB?

Of course, I love TB, but this is a shared computer and I don't want everyone in my family reading my emails.

Also, we do not use separate user accounts with Windows & really do not want to.

Thanks for any help you can give!

You want privacy but don't want to use separate Windows user accounts. This won't work.
