Steps to reproduce:
I changed the option "Start the week on" to Sunday, to coincide with my work roster.
Closed Thunderbird.
Restarted Thunderbird later
Actual results:
Every time I restart Thunderbird, the start of week option has reverted to Monday.
I have just updated to v50 to see if it has been fixed. It has not
Expected results:
Thunderbird should have remembered my option, and shown the calendar with Sunday as the first day. (This was the case up to an update was applied a few weeks ago).
It appears this option is not being saved and/or loaded on restarting.

Can you please post here the information from the Internationalization & Localization section of the troubleshooting page (menu->help->troubleshooting information)? What is the first day of the week where you're living?
Application Settings
Requested Locales ["en-GB","en-US"]
Available Locales ["en-GB"]
App Locales ["en-GB"]
Regional Preferences ["en-GB"]
Default Locale "en-GB"
Operating System
System Locales ["en-GB"]
Regional Preferences ["en-GB"]
The first day of the week for where I live depends on the job you are working in!
My job it is Sunday, other people have other days. Is that not why it is customisable in settings?
A new release came out today (60.5.1) but the problem is still there.
I have noticed that if I change the options for start of week to Sunday, the first time I restart, Sunday is shown as the start of the week. However the second time I restart, it has reverted back to Monday.
Changing the option during that first restart to another day and back again doesn't seem to make a difference, ie if I change the option to Monday then back to Sunday, the next time I log in it has reverted to Monday.
Just as an experiment, I tried changing the start of the week to Tuesday. It did appear to remember this day, ie every time I restarted it showed Tuesday.
So something peculiar about having Sunday as the start of the week.
There have been recent reports of this in Support forum.
