Transfer Firefox profile from old Windows 7 PC to new Windows 10 PC
I had considerable problems transferring the profile from an old Windows 7 PC to a new Windows 10 machine. I posted a question in the forum here but it seems to have got lost, and there have been no replies.
I've managed to solve the problem, thankfully. I was unable to successfully transfer the entire profile, so I set up the email account on a new profile, and simply copied over the abook.mab and history.mab files, and the 'Local Folders' folder. All the online messages were available via IMAP of course. Very simple in the end!

I see three questions from you on this topic. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/search/advanced?asked_by=david324&sortby=1&a=1&w=2
This one https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1301067 in the firefox forum you marked as solved.
This one you got a reply, but I do not see it as particularly helpful https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1301214 Mozbackup is not a solution anymore.
and this question about Firefox in the Thunderbird forum.
So can we clarify. Is it Firefox or Thunderbird you are asking about?
Does this help. https://thunderbirdtweaks.blogspot.com/2019/09/i-lost-my-profilemail-on-update-to.html
About:profiles makes most profile issues fairly point and click really.
