Converting from Windows XP to Windows 8 wipes out all files and programs. How do I save my e-mails and e-mail address books that are running on Thunderbird?

You need to save and then reinstate your Thunderbird profile.

I should point out that Firefox has a similar arrangement, with its own profile, so you can preserve your Firefox settings too.
