Your profile(s) should still be at %appdata%\Roaming\Thunderbird\profiles the first one is a map named something.default If it was overwritten at restore then its most likely gone. Otherwise if you install Tbird it should find all data there. (just in case, make a backup)

By the way the same applies to Firefox: %AppData%\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles

AND have "see hidden files and folders" turned on as %appdata% is hidden How to show hidden files
