Hello to all, I upgraded Thunderbird on my Windows 10 laptop from 68.10 to 78.01 and can't see any address books. Is this upgrade suppose to keep and display your address books? I tried to follow all recommendations that I could find and nothing helped. I even tried to export my address books from my second Windows 10 pc and import to PC 1, and I still couldn't see anything. Finally I had to uninstall (and delete all directories) all versions from laptop 1 and copy everything from laptop 2. Now I'm back on version 68.10 and everything seems to be OK. Is there a bug in conversion to 78.01? Thanks, Yuri

Now I understand why address book was not migrated. Unfortunately ti should have been made clear when automatic migration happened. Now I'll wait until this "bug" will be fixed.

I believe the bug has been fixed in 78.1.0, which is why I posted the link to the release notes so that you could read for yourself the fixes that were done in this release.
