Due to a crash, had to reinstall Thunderbird and start from scratch. Files were saved on PC. How do I find address book files and reinstall them?

Due to a PC crash I had to reinstall windows 10. All of my apps were lost but the files were saved and I was able to reinstall most of the missing apps and recover the files. Yes, I have learned a valuable lesson on inadequate backup! When I reinstalled Thunderbird I had to start from scratch. Is there a way to identify the file or files for my Thunderbird address book and migrate them into the reinstalled app? Thanks for the help.

This article is about moving address books but it shows the file names and locations. http://kb.mozillazine.org/Moving_address_books_between_profiles
