Hi!

When we experienced power failure twice, all of my settings including mails and mail accounts got lost. The files are still there under a profile, but is not loaded. Only the default address books are remaining. So how can I get it back?

I have put down a lot of work with multiple account and many filters.

I use Thunderbird Portable. But if possible I would like to change to regular Thunderbird.

I have attached some of my troubleshooting information.

Regards / Eva Karlsson
