TBird with IMAP gmail -- not letting me move messages out of inbox

I have used TBird for many years (in POP configuration with a comcast account) and stored a large amount of emails on my local hard drive. Recently I changed to using TBird with gmail as IMAP. I followed all the instructions for how to transition an existing account from POP to IMAP. Generally the transition went well and for a few weeks they seemed to be working fine.

Part of that transition, that I can't tell whether could be part of my current troubles or not, is that I now use an android smartphone to check the gmail account, using the gmail app, in addition to TBird from my PC.

So here is my trouble: now I am finding that when in TBird on my PC if I try to move a message out of my inbox and in to my 'local folders' for storage-- or in some cases I just try to delete a message-- Thunderbird does not register any change. The message appears to just remain in the inbox.

When trying to move a message, I can try to drag-drop it to the destination folder, or I can right-click it and navigate the "Move To" menu, but either way nothing happens.

TBird still seems to be able to receive/download messages but once they are in my inbox I can't seem to get them out.

Any ideas?

These sorts of issues are caused by third party programs such as Anti virus products. To determine if that is the case. Restart the operating system in safe mode with Networking.
