Saving Thunderbird before reinstalling Windows 10

[Camelbreath]

A while back (or two), I received some good advice on this board about backing up an installation of Thunderbird for installation on a new machine. The advice was sound and worked well by using a utility (and/or program) called MOZ Backup. I am wondering if this is still a good method or has something better come along?

I am going to reinstall the operating system (Windows 10 / 64 bit) on my main computer and want to back up my existing data so as to "take up" where i "left off" with Thunderbird, once the reinstall is over.

Thanks in advance,
Joe

MozBackup is no longer being developed but the last beta version was recently reported to have worked well by a user here on the forums. http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_backup
