My computer is in its dying days and profiles keep corrupting so recently i've mooved everything to a new profile (making some programs not work correcty )


So my question is how can i backup (where is the file that has) my email settings in it, because as with firefox also fudged up but i found a bookmarks.html so i just copied that over and voila. i was wondering if anyone knew if i could do a similar thing with thunderbird

Basically thunderbird loads nothing up at all its all white i want to completely rid my system of all files of thunderbird then install it again but still have my email settings saved, any suggestions?

damn school fries your brain and makes it not work good....forget english language.... sleep needed

C:\Documents and Settings\[USERNAME]\Application Data\Thunderbird

That's the directory with all your Thunderbird settings (and e-mails), all you need to do is copy that to

C:\Documents and Settings\[NEW USERNAME]\Application Data\Thunderbird

gotcha i was looking in mozilla and i could only see fox and sun no tbird


errrm nope i still got the whiteness

I can use it all great in safe mode just not in normal mode

Odd. That folder has all your settings so I don't know what causes that...
