I transferred my Thunderbird profile from a windows 10 machine to a Zorin linux machine. everything works but I'm missing almost all of my 12 local folders. I can see them in the mail directory, but they don't show up in Thunderbird. How do I recover them?

couple of questions.

Is the location in the profile folder? Is it a sub directory of "local folders" in the file system?

Due to the reversal of the \ and / in paths between windows and linux, you should not really copy MSF files from windows.

just delete the msf files. It is not a big deal.
