38.2.0

@Gnospen I'd say it's faulty security provided by anti virus programs. The fact that some of them balk at every single update, until they get a welcome message is not a security reinforced in my book. It's the incorrect behavior.

@klmmason there was Thunderbird 17, 24, 31 and 38. You say everyone but V17 crash? I saw nothing in the comments until your last answer about me crashing. Go slowly and do not respond is almost always caused by anti virus programs. AVG is no exception. Your anti virus very probably trying to scan the files in your profile folder while Thunderbird is trying to update their creation to blocks of the file conflicts and slow access. Creation of an exemption for profile records is one way to alleviate the problem. Simply, it stops on the analysis of access to the files in the profile folder. Compaction of your folder of mail on a regular basis can also reduce delays caused by anti virus as the current filews of analysis are smaller.

Anti virus vendors are often difficult to fund one exception, but AVG have instructions see https://support.avg.com/SupportArticleView?l=en_US & urlname=How-to-exclude-file-folder-or-website-from-AVG-scanning

AVG is not happy, which allows connections secure mail Badger establish you as a man in the hacker community so it can analyze your mail.
Nothing like that to jeopardize your security for a security program called can do a job. How long before a hacker found a hole in AVG and walks right by using security now defective? Security e-mail scanning offers are actually around zero and to create a big gaping hole in your security. Get AVG! So one door back in AVG for the NSA or another agency of national security and the security of your entire is toast, a paradise for pirates
