New address book name & location

I recently created a new profile, changing from POP3 to IMAP in order to meet the new Microsoft security requirements. All went well until I went to change my address book backup copy routine to access my address book in the new profile.. I cannot find any .MAB nor .SQLITE files anywhere! My address book is out there somewhere, as I can bring it up in Thunderbird, but I cannot find the actual file. What's going on?

Running TB 115.12.2 (32-bit), Windows 10 10.0.19045 Build 19045

First, Microsoft still allows POP accounts. I would be interested in reading whatever gave you that information. Second, click help>troubleshootinginformation - scroll down to 'profile folder' and click 'open folder' - you are now in the profile and the addressbook prefix is abook, so you should see abook.sqlite

Thanks for the help, David. I misspoke.. it's not POP going away, it's that the current version of Thunderbird does not offer the required security setting of 0Auth2 for POP accounts; at least I was unable to find it. See:

Security is still there. I don't know why, but I have seen several posts with the assumption that POP was no longer supported. It's not a problem, since you successfully switched. :)
