Hi,
I recently moved to a new computer (win 10 to win 10). I wanted to transfer all of my e-mails, folders and accounts/settings, and plugins.
Initially, I tried using the good old mozbackup (yeah I know it isn't supported but last year I was able to use it without any issues on a laptop I took with me for a trip). It didn't really work well this time. It is a very big backup - 34GB (with over 140GB on disk size which is strange).
So I tried to start over, deleted all the accounts, created a new default account, and copied the Thunderbird folder from the old PC to the new one in its entirety to the new computer.
It seemed to work but after looking at my folders (I use quickfolders) I see that many of the older folders (which do work fine on the old PC) are now empty and after the restart, they are also duplicated (again not all just the older ones - not sure why these are affected and not the new ones).
How do I solve this issue? (I looked around and there are many suggestions but not too many success stories).
