I am moving thunderbird profile from an old Mac to a new one. I copied profile from the old Mac to the new, run

thunderbird.exe -p on command line using console.

but, it did not run. I tried to find the location of thunderbird.exe, but could not find. Where is thunderbird.exe? How should I run it?

I am using MacBook Air with High Sierra ver. 10.13.2

Thank you in advance

Sam
