Data loss transferring T-Bird to another computer

Karl van Leuven

I transferred my Win 11 T-bird system to a new Win 11 computer using the T-Bird instructions re Profiles etc. The system transferred and operates on the new computer, BUT the last six years of e-mails and my current address book and calendar did not. The calendar that transferred was from 2014 to 2020 and the addresses were also from 2020. The current email addresses and up-to-date calendar didn't transfer. How can I make sure my current data transfers. I still have my old computer with T-Bird installed?

These steps work, as they are woring 100% with the windows File explorer that copies everthing

  1. ensure thunderbird is NOT running on old machine
  2. enter %appdata% in search window on task bar and press Enter key
  3. this should open windows file explorer in Appdata\roaming folder
  4. highlight the Thunderbird folder and copy to external media
  5. ensure thunderbird is installed on second computer, started once and NOT running
  6. enter %appdata% in search window on task bar and press Enter key
  7. you should be in Appdata\roaming folder. DELETE the thunderbird folder there
  8. now , paste your copied thunderbird folder there.
#   start thunderbird and all should be there
