I use TB on my Vista machine. Recently I downloaded Thunderbird on to my Windows 7 machine. However, that installation is empty - no files or folders. What is the easiest way to populate the Windows 7 instance with the details from the Vista default which has been running for years. Thanks.

Can you explain that in more detail? Are you having problems to install Thunderbird?
