Updated Thunderbird on my new Android. Checked on PC version update. Did that and it crashed.
Now I have Tbird running on my Android with all my email accounts in it. However; my PC version (Win 11) is like a first install. Blank slate. It asks about some "Hub" thing and I don't understand exactly what it is asking for. Outlook name and password? Mozilla account name and password? Some other username and password? Can't transfer anything from mobile to PC (not good). Any way to fix this? Don't tell me I might have to go back to Outlook...

Accounts information will not transfer from your Android device to your PC. If this is your initial install of Thunderbird on the PC, you will have to set up each account from scratch, though, of course, you can compare the settings with those on the Android device. It is asking for your email account user IDs and passwords.
"Accounts Hub" is new, 'experimental' feature that can help you set up email accounts. It works for most people, but is 100% reliable for some. That's why it can be disabled and you can use the old accounts setup wizard, or enter the server information manually. The feature's setting can be found at <Settings | General | Account Hub>. If it's not working for you, you can disable it here.
