Hi there
I have been using a portable version of Thunderbird, on partition D for a long time, but because I find no way of making it the default Windows mail program, a feature that I often need, I have installed a local version but having problems with importing the data from the portable version, because it is well over the 2GB, actually around 6GB, with many accounts, too cumbersome to setup anew, etc.
I see instructions for importing data into the portable version, but not the other way round.
- How EXACTLY do I go about this? Exacty which folders do I copy to where on the Windows 11 notebook and would that suffice to get to work on starting TB?
- In trying to make PortableThunderbird the default mail program, in settings, one it seems can only set a program installed in Windows & there is no option for a program that is portable or is there & if so any simple way to do so?
I would appreciate your guidance.
Thanks in advance.

i think, you can select portable app as standard in win and let open wished file types by wished app.
not sure how good it works and if better choose the exe file or the loader.
my knowledge stand.
you could propably set the portable as default without doing it complicated or huge data transfer.
