Exporting from a beta version to a stable release
Hi, hope someone can help please
By mistake I set up my 89 year old aunties TB using a Beta version. All of her emails are in that profile. I then installed the stable version but I'm told that the stable version is an older versions and can not import from the Beta.
Specifically the Beta version is 127.0b4 (64-bit) and the stable vesrion is 115.11.1 (64-bit).
Is there any way to recover the emails (and if possible the settings) from the Beta profile to the stable release
Thanks in anticipation

Thanks Wayne,
I got it working after a bit of fafffing around with the profiles. I ended up having to delete all but the beta profile and then creating a new profiles.ini file with the beta profile's name. Otherwise it kept wanting ro load the profile from last week when I hit this problem.
Sorry it took so long to reply, life got in the way as it so often does :-)
