Advice requested on Thunderbird for multiple users on W11

We two have our own W10 PCs, each with all our Thunderbird email folders, calendars, cardbook databases, addons, local olders etc. We plan to move to a situation where there is just one W11 PC with an admin user (for when we need to install apps), and two normal users, each with its own Desktop, user folder structure etc, and when each of us log in and start Thunderbird, we see our own emails, calendars, cardbooks etc. So we can effectively each use the one PC as our own.

I'm assuming this is possible because Thunderbird profile folders are complete records of all a user's content. I also assume that the W11 PC would only need one installation of Thunderbird itself.

With that in mind, I'd welcome any advice about the sequence of what I install / copy, and under what logins each step is done. Also whether the two profiles should be separated into the two users' user folders, or kept together in a Thunderbird data folder.

By all means point me to any existing documentation if it exists - I couldn't find it myself.

If they each have their own desktop, they should be fine.

A simple approach would be to create separate profiles for each (which could be copied from the current PC) and place a desktop icon for each person on desktop. Rightclick on icon and in the 'target' box, enter this: C:\program files\Thunderbird\thunderbird.exe -profilemgr "your location of profile"

I suppose in that scenario (if each user had their own Desktop) they would only see their own icon, and Thunderbird should only ever be opened from one or the other shortcut icons?
