I reset my PC and saved the wrong profile path, so i cant restore my thunderbird profile the normal way. However, I exported the profile to my phone and the thunderbird android app, where it is still stored. Can I export my profile from the App to then import it on the PC version? thx for your help!

There's a selection for 'Import' under 'Tools' in the Desktop TB. I can't go any further than see it provides some possibility (without mentioning Android). I can't find a help file in the database but it may work if you follow the path.

No sry, I just tried it. It requires me to have all the account data still stored on my pc to import it in my mozilla profile.

What I try to do is using the export file created by my thunderbird app (.k9s file) to import its stored data in my thunderbird on pc.

Thank you for your kind and quick responses! Sadly this one doesnt solve my problem. In this article it is stated how to export from pc and import into the app or export from the app and import it into the app.
