Try deleting xulstore.json, directoryTree.json , foldertree.json , mailviews.dat , search.json, and session.json in your profile. When you start Thunderbird it will replace those files with ones with default values, so you will need to customize any toolbars and your windows layout again. None of those files contain any of your data.

Based on the spaces toolbar I'm assuming you are using version 102. Did you install it in the existing installation directory?

thanks, got it sorted,

had accidentally resized the inbox column wholly to the left, so that the whole inbox tree was no longer visible.
