Help: Unable to copy my email lists when using export function to migrate profile to new computer.

It is March 17, 2025. I am using Thunderbird 128.8.0ESR (64bit) on Windows 11 Home (version 24H2) on BOTH COMPUTERS! When I use the Thunderbird Tools Export function from my old Window 11 computer to my new Windows 11 computer it copies all my email and folders correctly. I can send and receive email fine on the new computer. However, it fails to copy over my Thunderbird address book and my email lists (the address book and lists are blank). I tried multiple times. My profile is 76GB large. So I tried navigating to C:/Users/Profiles/app data/thunderbird/roaming/profiles/profile name to perform the move manually. Still no luck.

About 2 years ago. Thunderbird versions had the ability to export address books separately. That option is no longer available. So if you know of a way to export my lists of addresses (each lists is a thousand email addresses) That would also solve the problem. -Eileen

The file is named abook.sqlite and the collected addressbook is named history.sqlite. In windows file explorer, you can copy from one profile to another safely when thunderbird is not running. thunderbird also has tools>import>import from a file that offers the menu approach to copy an addressbook.
