Am having to migrate data to a new computer. Where are the CONTACTS of my Thunderbird account on my former Windows 10 desktop; I would like to move--copy and paste?--to my new computer? Thank you.

I'd suggest you move your entire profile.

You could pick out your address books from the profile. They are stored in files with .mab extensions but you'll have an interesting time of it working out which address book each represents, and importing it, if you have any user-defined address books. Personal Address Book is stored in abook.mab and Collected Addresses is stored in history.mab. These two files can be simply copied from one machine to another. User-defined address books are not so simple.

Alternatively you could export the address books on the old computer and import them into the new. I'd recommend the LDIF option for this.
