how can i copy my Linux mint Thunderbird profiles over to windows 10?
hello, how can i copy my Linux mint Thunderbird profiles over to windows 10? i get a copy alarm "can not copy symbolic link" when i try to copy the .thunderbird directory to my dos formatted usb drive. i do see that the linux profile directory has both imapmail and ImapMail directories. i believe this is the issue. when i am copying from linux to the dos usb drive, the error window askes to skip/cancel the directory it is troubled by. as both imapmail and ImapMail have the same size and file count, can i just skip one of the directories? is either better on the dos side? thank you for your time.

first, make sure thunderbird is not running - then all that should be needed is to send the .thunderbird folder to external media . I have done that with no problem. The full profile should opy okay.
