Hello,

I was doing a backup of my Thunderbird profile and accidentally overwrote the good archive folder with an older one that was much much smaller.

Example... The file is Archive under the Local folders.

C:\Users\xxxxxxx\AppData\Roaming\Thunderbird\Profiles\xxxxxxx.default\Mail\Local Folders\Archive

Is there any logs or something I can use to recover the file?


Thank you Bill
