I followed these directions but in "Roaming"! What do I do now?
I Menu app icon > Help > More Troubleshooting Information
Under 'Application Basics' - Profile Folder - click on 'Open Folder'
This opens a new window showing the contents of your current in use profile name folder.
Exit Thunderbird now - this is important.
Look for the following files and delete them.
cert8.db - obselete file cert9.db - currently used file key3.db - obselete file key4.db - current used file logins.json - current used file pkcs11.txt (some people report this file missing) secmod.db - obselete file session.json xulstore.json
See next comment before you start Thunderbird as you need to empty cache files.
Start Thunderbird
Add yahoo and make sure all the settings are correct. Make sure Authentication Method is Oauth and user name is full yahoo email address.
Report on results.

ADDITIONAL Whilst Thunderbird is closed - after you have deleted the files mentioned previously.
access : C:/Users/ User Account/Appdata/Local/Thunderbird/Profiles/ Please note this is the Appdata 'Local' location which the computer uses as a cache. Be sure you are in the 'Local' and not the 'Roaming' Delete the contents of the 'Profiles' folder.
then start Thunderbird. keep having to reset my secure key password and tried this in "Roaming" instead of "Local" Help!

Is there an original post for this, one that describes your problem? This seems incomplete and a brief check of your prior posts doesn't show a relationship.
Hi, My problem was that I was having to change my password weekly because Thunderbird would stop sending my emails. Everything seems to be working fine so far, but I was not sure I had messed something up by making these changes in "roaming" instead of "local" Thanks for your reply!
Roaming is where the real profile is.
Thank you!
