I am trying to import my contacts into Thunderbird - on my new Windows 10 OS computer - and am having difficulties. I used to use Windows Mail - on a Vista OS computer - and have located the "Contacts" file on my old hard drive {currently using old hard drive as a slave drive in an external hard drive enclosure}, but can not seem to import them into my Thunderbird Address Book.

Can someone please help me do this - easily? Thank you so much !!

Copy the contacts from the Contacts folder on the old drive to the Contacts folder in W10 (C:\Users\username\Contacts). Click the Export button and choose 'vCards (folder of .vcf files)'. Next, follow these instructions to import the vCards to TB.
