How to Uninstall Thunderbird from my Dell desktop computer

Scott

Strangely, when I navigate to Thunderbird Help and ask my question it brings me to the instruction page which says to follow instructions below. And there are no instructions below!

Yours is not a Thunderbird question, it's an operating system question. Assuming this is a Windows 11 computer, you uninstall Thunderbird the same way you uninstall any other program:

- Click the Start button and type "Thunderbird". Among its several Options, such as Open File Location, Run as Administrator, Pin to Start, etc., is "Uninstall".

- Got to <Windows Settings | Apps | Installed Apps>, search for "Mozilla Thunderbird", click the 'three-dot menu' and select "Uninstall"

Keep in mind that this uninstalls only the program itself. It will not touch your Thunderbird Profiles where your personal data is stored. That's found at "%APPDATA%\Thunderbird" (usually "C:\Users\(your user name)\AppData\Roaming\Thunderbird").
