It gives a short list, then ... and I wasn't sure what else was it includeing. Like would it include my calendar which I use via Lightning in Thunderbird? IS it stuff in specific folders?
What I want it to be included in the backup is my Local Folders which I use for TBP. Should I put that folder in any particular folder?

Data files

Data folders that are within the PortableApps directory. Mostly the apps that come with the .paf format.

Ah, I was wondering if my local folders from TBP would be included in that "Apps only" backup.

They are backed up. They reside in:
X:\PortableApps\ThunderbirdPortable\Data\profile\...

When you select app data, all your app data is backed up. All the Data directories in apps that are in PortableApps.com Format. So it gets your Thunderbird email and settings, Firefox profile, Gaim settings, OpenOffice.org settings, etc.

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