I had a lot of directories in "local folders"

Clever me thinks that if I right click on it and change the path, all the folders and emails will move to this new location.

Going into the local folders today - no, there is nothing there as the new path points to an empty location

I think the last location was a default but I'm not sure. Either way, how do I find out where it was and copy them all over to the new place so I can get at them again?

Many thanks for any help

To put the 'Local Directory' pointing to the default Local Folders directory, do the following.

Right click on mail account name in Folder Pane and select 'Settings' In left Pane, below your mail account names, you will see 'Local Folders'. select 'Local Folders'. Local Directory: click on 'Browse' button.

'Local Folders' is by default here: C:\Users\<Windows user name>\AppData\Roaming\Thunderbird\Profiles\<Profile name>\ Mail\Local Folders

select 'Local Folders' and click on 'Select Folder'. click on OK
