Local Folders does not access all existing subfolders after hard drive restore

I had to restore my hard drive using Time Machine. Now Local Folders does not show my complete list of subfolders. I checked the hard drive location,

/Users/carol/Library/Thunderbird/Profiles/u7n9368b.default/Mail/Local Folders 

and the folders all are there. I have reinstalled TB without a change. How do I get TB to read those folders? Needless to say, I have a LOT of really important stuff stored in there that I need to be able to access. The data is in there. I was able to open it in text, but it's pretty hard to read that way.

if yuo open the folder from Help menu > troubleshooting and clicking the show folder button. Does it open in the same folder? Or have you managed to get two profiles going.

/Users/carol/Library/Thunderbird/Profiles/ would have two entries in it not just u7n9368b.default

I was mistaken. NOT all the folders are still on the hard drive in my Library. Unfortunately, my Library was hidden in backups and I cannot find it to restore from an older backup. If anyone has a hack for showing a user Library in a Time Machine backup that was not visible when the backup was made, let me know!
