Changing Thunderbird email account from a Vista operating system to Win 10 I have been unable to locate the "thunderbird exe" on the new computer The Profile Folder was copied to the Win 10 computer and located in Program Files under the folder heading "Thunderbird" When "thunderbird.exe-p" is entered in the Open box, windows says the file cannot be found.
