Can't import

I am moving from a win7 pc to a win11 pc. I have exported from my win7 pc fine and get a zip file of 6.6gig. I moved it to the win11 pc, where I have installed Thunderbird.

On the win11 pc I go to tools, import and it chose the import all option and press next. On the next screen there is a live button at the bottom that says next but when I press it I get nothing.

Any ideas most welcome, thanks in advance.

The export function that creates a zip file also has a reminder not to exceed 2 gig. If that import doesn't work, you might try this:

  1. click tools>export and then click the 'open profile link'
  2. now exit thunderbird
  3. highlight the entire profile and copy to external media
  4. on win 11 pc, repeat steps 1 and 2
  5. now highlight and delete the contents of the profile and paste the contents copied to external media
  6. start thunderbird on win 11

Thanks for getting back to me, problem is on the win7 version, (115.18.0 (32-bit), the only option is to export as a zip file.

I tried copying the profile folder to the win7 pc and importing that but it says nothing to import

Then do this:

  1. click help>troubleshootinginformation on win 7
  2. scroll to 'profile folder' and click 'open folder'
  3. now exit thunderbird
  4. highlight the entire profile and copy to external media
  5. on win 11 pc, repeat steps 1 and 2
  6. now highlight and delete the contents of the profile and paste the contents copied to external media
  7. start thunderbird on win 11
