Migrating Tbird from old SSD to new SSD

[jgb]

A while back I had a 128gb SSD boot sector corruption and was forced to install a new clean 480gb SSD, same OS (Win 10 Home 32 bit).
But until now I have not re-installed Tbird and I am using (temporarily) Yahoo Mail. Firebird migrated smoothly due to its sync function.

I now need to reinstall Tbird and migrate its configuration and files from the old SSD, which is readable, but not bootable.
It is now the secondary data drive till I transfer everything I need then I can reformat it as a clean 2nd drive.

So what are the steps I need to do to get Tbird up and running.
I have not yet installed Tbird on the 480gb SSD waiting for some direction on the migration.
