I have been using Thunderbird for many years and have previously updated without problem. But upon updating to version 128.0.1esr I suddenly couldn't see my folders or emails (see attached image). However, if I search for an email I will get a list containing the relevant emails, but as soon as I click on an email in the list I go back to the blank screen like at login with no folders or emails.

I have trawled through related fixes and have tried clearing the startup cache, restart and reinstall Thunderbird but nothing helped .
