Installed Thunderbird on a new computer.

1. First I transfered Thunderbird's profile to it's default location in Win 10 2.Then I installed Thunderbird V78.01 3. When I started Thunderbird up everything was there but in the "INBOX" the program created 1,099 sub folders named "Inbox- 1 -Dale to Inbox-1099 - Dale" 4. I have on transfered Thunderbird profile a couple of times over the years and they were a 100%. 5. So I have no idea what happened here, does anyone have any idea's? 6. See attached picture. 7. Thanks in advance Dale

Hello, You can ignore Multiple mailboxes, I guess when I shut down Thunderbird it must have deleted all those extra mailboxes. When I started up Thunderbird again they were gone. Thanks again Dale
