I have Thunderbird 102.2.0 (32-bit) on a 64 bit fully updated Windows 10 OS.

I have many inbox and local folders.

I have seen directions on updating to 64 bit. Are there any precautions I should take other than backing up the profile? Are there clean-up things I should do to the profile first. Some of the entries are many are years old.

I always suggest backing up profile when planning any change. The upgrade should go smoothly.
