Using Cloud Drives to store all profiles and mail
I am looking for a way to have all Thunderbird profiles and mails in a cloud storage platform such as pCloud or Icedrive or even Dropbox. In other words I want the external Cloud drive to act as my local hard drive. I can't find any instructions on how to accomplish this or if it is possible. Thank You

You can not find instructions because while it is possible to configure I am not aware of a single instance where it has actually worked long term. The usual result is data-loss. So I suggest you reconsider.
What exactly is the intent anyway?
Two primary Use Cases: 1) Avoid consumption of Hard Drive space on the laptop 2) Ability to move from device to device but maintain the same Profile Thanks
1. Buy a bigger drive. 2. https://portableapps.com/apps/internet/thunderbird_portable
Awesome! Will definitely give PortableApps a try. Thanks!
Do you know if PortableApps is running TB 78?
I see that it just updated to 78 on 12/17/20. Thanks
Hello, Is there a way to launch the Profile Manager in the PortableApps version? This is the path and command that I'm using in the Windows Run dialog box: I:\PortableApps-Mobile Apps\ThunderbirdPortable\thunderbirdportable.exe -p Running this just launches the entire Thunderbird App - it doesn't launch the Profile Manager. Thanks
use about:profiles from the troubleshooting information on the help menu.
Thanks Matt, Very Helpful.
