I just upgraded my OS from Win 7 Ult to Win 10 Pro. I tried t run MozBackup 1.5 and it did not complete the task. Is there an alternative to back up my FF and TB?

Hi

The most straightforward way is to take a backup of your profile folder, an approach that works for both Firefox and Thunderbird. This is then something you can use with a clean install of Firefox or Thunderbird to restore settings and messages.

For Firefox, the instructions to back up your profile folder are here.

For Thunderbird, the instructions to back up your profile folder are here.

I hope this helps, but if not please come back here and we can look into a different solution for you.
