Solitary profile
My old computer motherboard died. I was able to copy my profile from users>appdata>Thundrbird>Profiles. When I install Thunderbird on my new PC, I cannot find a method to install my old profile. I still have access to my old C:\ but only as an external data drive.

here is the info in brief steps:
- copy the c;\users\<yourid>\appdata\roaming\thunderbird folder on the old disk drive. that will include the profile.
- ensure thunderbird is installed on second computer and NOT running
- enter %appdata% in search window on task bar and press Enter key
- you should be in Appdata\roaming folder , copy&paste the exported Thunderbird folder there. This WILL prompt to overwrite an existing folder of same name. allow it
- start thunderbird and all should be there
