Profile Migration from non-default folder?

Post by pieman92 » 2014-08-01, 12:42

Hi I'd like to try this tool, but my thunderbird profile isn't in in the default folder.
How can I fix this?

thanks Ian

Hi Ian, and welcome to the forum!

I think the easiest solution would be to transfer your profile folder manually. Just make sure it's stored in a location you're happy with (FossaMail's default location for storing profile folders is C:\Users\[Username]\AppData\Roaming\FossaMail\Profiles), and then run the Profile Manager (run command: fossamail.exe -p) to create a new profile, that uses your existing profile folder.
