V68, where's my Personal Address Book?
Updated to V78. Lost my Personal Address Book, Local Folder Keepers, and Spamfighter. SF gave me URL to go back to V68 because V78 destroyed all my add ons. But now TB does NOT display my PAB even though abook.mab is there. Can any kind person help?

re : There is no abook.mab.bak in the Profile Folder.
when you updated to 78: abook.mab.bak would have been created and at the same time it would have created abook.sqlite as the new 'Personal Address Book' to be used in version 78.
So you should not be seeing abook.mab which makes me wonder if you are looking at the correct profile name folder.
How many 'profile name' folders do you have in the Appdata/Roaming/Thunderbird/Profiles folder ?

What is the size of abook.mab? Is abook.mab.bak also in the profile folder? If it is, move abook.mab to another folder, rename abook.mab.bak to abook.mab, then restart TB.
abook.mab is 48.4KB. There is no abook.mab.bak in the Profile Folder.
