I’m no software expert so I don’t understand all of the above people’s comments on how to migrate. To me the program should’ve been made to do the update automatically and seemlessly without all this migration installing and uninstalling of software.

I don’t appreciate Mozzilla never telling us we had 32bit and that they had made 64bit the newest install and they never warned me to prepare or how to migrate or whatever.

That’s when I wrote to the Mozzilla community and someone answered me and told me that V68 was 64bit and it looks like I discovered a bunch of issues with it. I uninstalled it and re-installed V60 and got all my files back. Not even my IMAP profiles loaded back up. Then, when I tried to return my emails and folders to the proper place, my POP3 profile would not load back up. Kind of confused me because I never used that one. My dual delete button from the top bar was missing and only the one on the far right was left. All I know is that it looked a bit different than usual. I still had no idea it was 64bit when I installed it. Since Mozzilla never advertised the 64bit when I reformatted my PC and downloaded the latest Thunderbird, it was Version 68. Folder switching seems a lot faster and folders display emails more quickly to before. I don't have scientific proof but it seems to me that the 64-bit version of Thunderbird is more responsive than the 32-bit one on my system with a good number of emails in the database (120k). Go back to the 32-bit version if you notice any issues afterward. Thunderbird should start up normally and you can check that you are running the 64-bit version now by selecting Help > About Thunderbird. Note though that both installations will use the same user data. You could select custom installation at one point to install it to a different directory than the 32-bit version so that you could go back to the 32-bit version without installing it anew.

The installer does not reveal to you that you are installing the 64-bit version of Thunderbird.

Click on the download link to download the 64-bit version of Thunderbird to the local system.

Select the most recent version, then win64, and then the locale to open the download folder.

Head over to the official Mozilla FTP site and download the 64-bit version of Thunderbird for your locale from there.

You can also use MailStore Home to backup all mails locally. Since you are installing a version that is not supported officially, you may want to back up the Thunderbird data folder or even the entire system partition before you start the process.
