Update Yesterday Killed My Thunderbird
Yesterday, when opening Thunderbird, it came back saying that I am a new user and required that I start over. I have 3 profiles... 1) one dated 1/2/2016 and two dated yesterday 2) 12/4/2020 4:44 am and 3) 1:17 pm. I am assuming that the first one is old and can be deleted and the two from yesterday identify my current account (#3) and the account I wish reinstated (#2).
Please help me find out how to attach to the correct user profile.
Thanx, Collien Kaseberg cek@comcast.net

I would guess the 2016 one is what you have been using. So lets not make assumptions. That is how permanent data loss occurs.
I suggest you go to the about:profiles entry in the troubleshooting information (it is on the help menu) Once in the about:profiles try launching each of those profiles and see which it is you want to be using, then set it as the default.
