I have 4 email accounts through Thunderbird. I want to delete Tgunderbird on my Windows laptop and reload everything. I have many local email folders in Thundrrbird and don't want to lose them. How do I save them and then reload under the new TB instance? Thanks.

Deleting and reinstalling is never recommended. Why do you want to do that? If it is for an upgrade, there is no need to reinstall.
