Try deleting the parent.lock file from the profile folder, located by default in:
C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Thunderbird\Profiles\xxxxxxxx.default
AppData is hidden by default in File Explorer.

Thanks for this it has now got rid of already running message but now tells me that there is no Profile and still wont open. Any more suggestions?
Close TB, open a Run window (Windows key+R), type thunderbird.exe -p to open Profile Manager. Are there any profiles listed, and can you choose one and launch TB?
All good now thanks deleted the hole profile instead of just the parent.lock file Thankyou very much for your help
