Moving Thunderbird from a pc to another
When moving Thunderbird does it have to be to identical users. Thanks Terry

When moving the profile, everything is moved. So, it remains to the original users. Maybe if you explain your intent, we may be able to give a more focused response.
For a reason I don’t understand my newer PC has a different user name to the source PC although I am the only user. I wish to transfer Thunderbird to the newer PC (currently running Win 10) whereas the source PC (also running Win 10) is not upgradeable and will be retired! I guess my query is should I set up a new user on the newer PC to match that of the source? Thanks Terry
The user name at c:\users\<userid> is irrelevant to thunderbird. That variable is established when you turn PC on the first time and respond to a few Windows questions. What is important is pasting the copied thunderbird folder at the ...appdata\roamig folder to overlay the existing one.
