Export to mobile QR code no show

Thunderbird Import and export settings

Trying to export my Thunderbird ver 128.9 to my mobile; I foolow the instructions and get to the page that says "Scan the QR code". But there is no QR code to scan! If I select the "Export" button, I get a request for a PIN code. I know nothing about a PIN code so I follow the "Forgot my PIN code" which tells me I should go to "Settings/Accounts/Sign in Options" There is no "Accounts" selection under the Settings menu.

The PIN is your signin password when starting Windows.

If only the "Help" page could have said that, instead of all this guff about"Settings/Accounts.." etc!

I think it's this one: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/thunderbird-android-import#w_export-thunderbird-desktop-settings

I made a suggested addition that needs review.
