How can I complete the move of Thunderbird from Drive C: to Drive D:?

I run Thunderbird on a PC, and, to free up space on Drive C:, I have moved the contents of the folder Thunderbird in Appdata to Drive D:. I then changed my Server Settings, in Thunderbird, from C: to D:, and note that any new mail is indeed now appearing there along with those already transferred. This move could save me a valuable 6 gig of space, and more in the future, however, I am unable to remove that original Thunderbird folder entirely, notably I am unable to remove the contents of the Profiles folder, as it is still linked to the application. Notably with cookies.sqlite, cookies.sqlite-shm, store.json, mozlz4, aborted-session-ping and many others, which I note some have continued to be updated. I have been unable to find any other settings in Thunderbird referring to Drive C:, other than those in Server Settings.

I could presume that if I installed another version of Thunderbird on Drive D: and maybe moved those existing contents of the Thunderbird folder on C: onto Drive D:, and made those numerous settings changes to the App it could work. But I ask is there an easier way to complete this move? How can I complete this transition of Thunderbird from Drive C: to Drive D:?

These two attachments, which I sent yesterday afternoon show the contents of"fcw...". It does not have a Mail folder, but does had Prefs. When I used Mozbackup it automatically displayed those three folders, 1me, fcw and nn. I tried 1me first and found it was corrupted. I then chose fcw and it did indeed back up all my mail, and this included Archives going up to 2024. Whilst the size of this backup file is 3.6 gig, slightly smaller than I had said these files only exist on Drive D:, there are no emails in Tbird on C:. This folder is only 221 mb in size. I cannot explain but to propose that fcw links on to Drive D:. This backup took two and a half hours! As I mentioned "nn..." went through the process of backing up but stopped after only a few seconds and with nothing at all saved. I an struggling a little here but it does seem to work. I have to call it day a day now, but will look through your comments to see if I can understand it better. I am presuming you may also be leaving soon, but please comment.

Just a quick update. Attached Properties of fcw. No additional data has been added to any of those tree folders. nn is 207 mb. Take your advice about Mozbackup. Never had a problem, but never restored from it! Will take your guidance.
