Thunderbird takes the format from the OS.
Now, whilst I am not a full-time user of Windows 10, I am quite set in my ways when it comes to dates and I would have been highly irritated if Thunderbird on W10 had ignored my preference for the yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss date format, and as far as I can recall, that all worked nicely for me. So my question to you is to ask what date format is set in Windows 10 itself?
After that, I'd double check the date format selection settings in Thunderbird, though I don't think they can affect the internal format of the date, just select which date format (long vs short etc) is used in Thunderbird.

Yep - many thanks
