fresh install of everything -- new computer.

copy and paste code is stripped of its formatting when put in an email body. the thunderbird on my other computer didn't do this. what's the setting? I can't seem to find it.

Most code is prettified on the fly. This is particularly so for Microsoft office. Perhaps you need to get one of the clipboard inspector products and inspect the item that is on the clipboard.

do you know of one that's good?

these are extremely hard to google because "color thunderbird email body" shows you how to change the colors in options, "thunderbird format code" shows you its open source code... the keywords in that order all mean other things and I can't seem to find anything addressing this problem.

In W10, you can see the clipboard contents with Windows key+V. When I copy some formatted text, e.g. with a colored font, in another app, the color is ignored in the clipboard, and the pasted version in TB looks the same as if it was pasted without formatting (Ctrl+Shift+V). I don't recall if or when it worked differently in an earlier TB.

What was wrong with a simple 'Reveal' command without a complicated path ?

I have no idea what you are talking about. Did you post into this topic in error perhaps?
