Troubleshooting hang on close?

2014-01-19 Thread Rex
I'm running Seamonkey on Windows 8.1 64-bit, with 8 GB RAM. It never 
closes cleanly, whenever I close it, it winds up remaining in memory 
consuming about 460 MB or so, and I have to kill the process.
Consequently, none of the 'remember setting on next startup' features 
work, i.e. reopening closed tabs, or remembering the position of the 
split pane in the mail client.
I don't know if it's because of an extension or something else, but is 
there a way to troubleshoot faulty extensions without creating a fresh 
profile and reinstalling them one by one?

You don't need to uninstall for testing purposes. Do CTRL-SHIFT-A or go 
to about:addons and you'll see a list of your installed extensions. 
For each one, click the Disable button.


Then follow this routine:

1) Restart the program and test.

2) If no problems, pick one of your extensions and enable it.

Lather, rinse, repeat.
