i had to change my password for my hotmail account. i then could not find in thunderbird to change the stored password to the new one. so i deleted the account. the problem with this, is that i had archived folders that were also all deleted when the account was deleted. but i had copies of tickets , vouchers, etc in those folders and need to retrieve the folders back. i had added an account, for the same hotmail account and added the password. if i reset my computer back to before i did this, an earlier timeline, will it get back the lost folders. or are the folders lost forever???? :-(

You can probably recover the deleted account. http://kb.mozillazine.org/Thunderbird_:_FAQs_:_Recover_Deleted_Account

You deleted the account to remove the stored passwords? Pretty drastic move! Next time try this. https://kb.wisc.edu/page.php?id=19006
