Updated Betterbird today (153.3) and now it refuses to open. Tried uninstalling then reinstalling and then restarting my laptop. Nothing.
Then I thought well Thunderbird's bound to work isn't it? No, as it turns out.
How do I figure out what's going on?
Try running thunderbird (or betterbird) from the command prompt, you'll probably then see the error which is causing the problem reported in the terminal window. I'm pretty sure you can just type 'thunderbird' at the command prompt to run it. -- Chris Green
