Local folder emails disappeared
I bought a new PC in February, backed up all emails and transferred onto new PC. All working fine until last week when windows OS crashed the new PC, managed to re-download Thunderbird and installed everything from back-up USB emails up to February. From February to today no emails have been uploaded in the "local folders". Is there a cloud/ server that stores my old emails in the local folders, so I can recover them, or even a program?

Hello, I use local folders for utility bills, insurance documents, family etc to keep these emails. They have gone from middle February up til now. Are they stored in a cloud/ backed up somewhere? Desperately need them back as my mother passed away recently, and have many documents on there.

Normally no identities (email adresses) are associated with the "Local Folders", so please be more explicit. How do you proceed to store messages in your Local Folders? Do you use them to create archives? Or do you use the "Global Inbox (Local Folders)" for POP accounts?

Your problem ist difficult to understand. Are folders missing you created in the Local Folders? Or are these folders still present in Local Folders, but all messages between middle February and now are missing? How did (or how do) you feed those folders in Local Folders? Manually by moving messages in your folders in Local Folders? Or did (do) you use message filters to move messages from Inbox to Local Folders?
What happens actually if you copy or move a message from Inbox to one of your folders in the Local Folders? Is the moved message displayed in the destination folder?
To begin with: R-click (on any local folder missing messages) > Properties > Repair Folder.
