Event Reminders in Thunderbird Calendar
I am using Thunderbird 138.0.2 (64-bit). I recently purchased a new Windows 11 computer. I installed Thunderbird on the new computer and copied all of my profile from the old Windows 10 computer to the new computer. When I set up an event in Calendar, Thunderbird no longer gives me reminders when I set up an event. I have tried uninstalling and re-installing Thunderbird, tried using Troubleshoot Mode, and ran the Config Editor to check Calendar settings. Nothing has worked. I am still not getting reminders. I would appreciate any help with this problem. Thank you.

Thank you very much for your detailed suggestions, but they did not resolve my problem. My settings were all set as it was suggested in your posts. I have a feeling that the reminders are being blocked by Windows 11. As I said in my original post, Thunderbird reminders were working fine in Windows 10.
I have been trying all kinds of tweaks to cure my reminder problem, and all of a sudden my reminders popped up this evening!! I had been trying to enter a test event before today, and it did not give me a reminder. I entered a test event after today's date and it worked. Sorry I can't tell you what I did right but the reminders are working now!
