Restore Thumderbird subfolders from backup
I need to restore a folder named WebDev along with its subfolders from a backup created with Windows 7 Backup on Windows 10. I copied WebDev and WebDev.msf from backup to Mail/Local Folders under my profile. But that only restored the top level folder named WebDev. I do not see corresponding names for each subfolder on backup or even under Local Folders for other live subfolders. How can I identify and restore the subfolder files from backup or even see other live subfolder files under Local Folders?

Does the backup include sbd (subdirectory) folders? Those are the folders that contain mbox files corresponding to subfolders of Local Folders. Note that it's not necessary to copy the .msf files - they are recreated automatically when TB restarts. Importing a folder with subfolder structure can also be done with ImportExportTools NG.

Yes, thank you. I restored the sdb file successfully.
