I use portable apps as much as possible but Thunderbird would never be one of them. Install the application directly from Thunderbird.

Huh? What has Yahoo got to do with TB? Yahoo is an email provider. (yourname@yahoo) TB is an email client (an application that handles your email.) It can handle email from all the various email providers.

You can switch to Betterbird which is from one of the original Thunderbird developers. He has a portable version.
