How do I fix Thunderbird Import NG Tools not working issue?

Here are various ways to fix the Thunderbird Import Tools NG not working issue:

✅ Update Thunderbird and the Add-on
First, make sure you’re using the latest version of Thunderbird and the ImportExportTools NG add-on. Incompatibility is a common reason for it to stop working.

✅ Restart Without Troubleshoot Mode
Check that Thunderbird isn’t running in Troubleshoot (Safe) Mode, which disables all extensions. Restart Thunderbird normally to re-enable add-ons.

✅ Disable Conflicting Add-ons
Sometimes, other extensions can cause conflicts. Temporarily disable other add-ons to see if ImportExportTools NG starts working again.

✅ Reinstall the Add-on
If the issue persists, remove ImportExportTools NG and reinstall it from the official Thunderbird Add-ons website to fix any corrupted files.

✅ Check Folder Permissions
Ensure you have the right permissions for the folders you’re importing to or exporting from. Lack of access can cause the tool to fail.

Trying these simple steps usually helps you get ImportExportTools NG working smoothly again!
