Thunderbird
I am running Windows 10 and am going to upgrade to Windows 11. To do this I need to save my Thunderbird system emails and folders, to enable me to reformat my disk drive. I can then fresh install Win 11 and Thunderbird to get my email working again. Advice as to what to save (profile?) in Thunderbird. Then putting this info into the new install of TB. Many thanks, Paul.

Follow these steps in detail and you should have no problems. Be sure to install thunderbird from thunderbird.net.
Here is the link for moving a profile in Windows when installed in default location:
https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/moving-thunderbird-data-to-a-new-computer
here is the info in brief steps:
- ensure thunderbird is NOT running on old machine
- enter %appdata% in search window on task bar and press Enter key
- this should open windows file explorer in Appdata\roaming folder
- highlight the Thunderbird folder and copy to external media
- ensure thunderbird is installed on second computer and NOT running
- enter %appdata% in search window on task bar and press Enter key
- you should be in Appdata\roaming folder , copy&paste the exported Thunderbird folder there. This may prompt to overwrite an existing folder of same name. allow it
- start thunderbird and all should be there
