Profiles
Thunderbird stores all of your information in profiles. It is possible to move profiles between computers, and operating systems. This is an ideal candidate for configsync (so all calendar colours match khal, for example).
Deleting Profiles
On windows, you can delete your thunderbird settings by deleting the following folder. Note that removing individual components does not seem to work.
C:\Users\will\AppData\Roaming\Thunderbird ~/.thunderbird/TimeZones
Thunderbird does not detect your system timezone.
- Rclick menubar > Check MenuBar - Edit > Preferences > Calendar: TimeZone: America/Toronto

So far, I have not been able to delete one of these calendars if it has not synchronized yet. The only way I have managed to do so successfully is deleting the entire profile.Colours
