I installed the app on a thumb drive and added my initial account, which worked fine. Then when I tried adding another it duplicated my original and seemed to tie it into it so that I was not able to get the changes I tried making to the settings to stick. I tried this multiple times (the assisted way and the manual way) and it kept duplicating the default account in place of the new one.
Anyone experiencing this? Any suggested solutions? Would I have been luck with the legacy version?
Thanks.

That's not what I asked. Those links about about running multiple instances of the application, whereas I am asking about having multiple accounts on the initial (and only) running instance - right now when I try to add a second account it duplicates the first and links them together somehow.
That's a global inbox and has been a part of Thunderbird itself for quite some time. Information on it and how to disable it is here:

Sometimes, the impossible can become possible, if you're awesome!
