If this gets into trouble frequently, I suggest that, once it's working, that your copy the roaming/thunderbird folder or at least copy the profiles.ini file so you can quickly restore if needed. Then, open the above-mentioned profiles.ini file in Notepad and overtype the path statement to point to the desired one. If it's the wrong one, you can repeat the steps.Īnd, to remove the mystery, you can browse the profiles folder via Windows in File Explorer view and look at the files to decide which is the probable one. Clicking them will let you see the associated files and their last date of access. If interest are the Mail folder and the Imapmail folder. Click the 'open folder' button to review contents. That opens a window where you can look at each profile. Unless a file is corrupt, you can start TB, click help>more troubleshooting information and, on next screen, scroll down to profiles and click 'about:profiles. In that folder there may be multiple folders, each of which is a full profile that you at one time may have used. And the profile, unless you have moved it, will be at c:\(yourname)\appdata\roaming\thunderbird\profiles. Okay, profiles are often confusing, but it's basically a pointer file at c:\(yourname)\appdata\roaming\thunderbird\profiles.ini with a path statement that identifies where the profile is.
