Good morning,

My computer recently was fried by a power surge. The HDD is unaffected, so I am looking to transfer my profile and email history to a new PC. I have Thunderbird installed on the new system. I have gone through and copied the "app data" in both local and roaming folders from the old HDD to the new computer. Still noting showing up when I launch Thunderbird, except to set up a new account. Any advice on how to get this up and running? Seems like the version on the old PC was not the same latest as I just downloaded on the new system.

Thank you,
