You reference appdata\local. Did you mean appdata\roaming? It appears you copied the entire profile, not just local folders. Please review the file locations you used. Normally, for local folders, I would do your basic steps but would copy
c:\users\<yourid>\appdata\roaming\thunderbird\profiles\<profilename>\Mail\Local Folders to D:
and on restart to adjust the Local Folders pointer to poing to D and then delete the folder contents on C:
