User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:109.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/118.0

Steps to reproduce:

(115.3.2)

1. Installed Thunderbird and did setup of my accounts.
2. switched the view to classical view
3. Cant switch back to modern message list anymore there is no option

I tried to undo it by Restore Collumn Order - did not work. I tried to restore Layout and switching back from different layout options: Did not work. So I now stuck in the classical message list layount and cant switch back.

Also new folders I create have this view, so I can also not just copy the "good" view from another folder with apply to all.

There should be really a way to reset the Interface with a button.

Actual results:

Now there is no way to switch back to the modern view, I only have the classical view.

Expected results:

Have a button or something in the collumn config to revert back to the default modern layout.

Too add and clarify: I'm talking about the Message List. Table View and Card View.
Once Switched to Table View I had no Option to switch back to Card View. See Screenshot above.

I could "recover" Thunderbird by running it in Safe mode and do a full UI Reset.

You found the Table View and Card View.
Now to change layout, go to menu View ·| Layout

And exactly this is why I wrote the report, because it didnt worked.
As I wrote only as I reset the profile I was able to get the cards view back.
