I reinstalled my system from ubuntu 20.04 do manjaro I saved ~/.thunderbird folder from the old system to an external drive After I copied the folder back to home and started Thunderbird it does not seem to see the profile. Although it can read some of the data, like the Address Book but no account settings no folders, nothing else.

I found the help page 

https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/moving-thunderbird-data-to-a-new-computer

And tried to do it but it doesn't help. Thunderbird found my old profile and it is visible in about:profiles and set as the default profile.

There is a known bug which seems to effect some people where the profile is correctly used and address book is accessible, but is failing to display accounts and emails. So try the following to see if this is the cause of the problem.

  • Exit Thunderbird.
  • Access 'profile name' folder.
  • Delete this file: global-messages-db.sqlite
  • Restart Thunderbird.
