Transfering address books and email folders to new laptop
I have just purchased a new laptop and installed Thunderbird which I have been using for a few years on my old PC. I want to transfer my address books and email files help on the old PC to the new laptop, but I'm experiencing real problems. Could you please advise? Thanks

Here is the link for moving a profile in Windows when installed in default location:

here is the info in brief steps:
- ensure thunderbird is not running on old machine
- enter %appdata% in search window on task bar and press Enter key
- this should open windows file explorer in Appdata\roaming folder
- highlight the Thunderbird folder and copy to external media
- 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 may prompt to overwrite an existing folder of same name. allow it
- start thunderbird and all should be there
