I'm moving from win 10 to 11 in new PC. I downloaded Thunderbird. I have hidden files showing in new PC so I found where it should be. When I look for the Thunderbird I downloaded it's not there in roaming...so I can't move my profile into the new computer. I have it on a drive read to install, but it's not showing up.

Thanks David, I decided to return the new PC and have a SS harddrive put in mine, I really like mine better than I did the newer on.
