I've a Windows 8.1 Laptop that has crashed, and I'm trying to migrate the Thunderbird email archives along with its address book to a new Windows 10Pro Laptop. Where is the default TB mail location for Windows 8.1? I've looked under the /Users/ folders, but have not found anything resembling TB profiles.

You're looking for the profile and it is stored in a location that Is set to "hidden" by ďefault.

Help|Troubleshooting Information has a button that will take to to that folder.
