Just upgraded from Moz 1.7.13 to SM 1.1.16, and before doing so I
ran Mozilla's profile manager to clean up any extraneous entries. It
prompted me to choose between my current profile and an imaginary
one that AFAICT no longer exists. When I told it to delete the
imaginary one, it said it had been created by "a previous version of
Navigator" and could only be removed by that program (probably v.
4.5 or so!) -- but of course it was willing to delist it, so I did
that.
When I completed the SeaMonkey installation, the new profile manager
did the same thing -- asked me to choose between a real and
imaginary profile, then agreed to delist the imaginary one.
I've searched and searched my computer and can't find any remnant of
the imaginary profile to remove, so what gives? What do I need to
clean up before the profile managers will stop "detecting" it?
Thanks.
Check "Profiles.ini" in the profiles directory.
No such file anywhere on my computer.
Could it be it is hidden and Windows does not display it?
It is normally located on c:\documents and settings\......\application
data\application data\mozilla\seamonkey. (with ... standing for user's
name).
Nope. I have Windows Explorer set to show hidden and system files. I
even tried revealing hidden OS files, no go.
The directory you specify does not exist. C:\...\Mozilla\ has only one
subdirectory, which is the valid profile, and it contains no other
files. However, there /is/ a \SeaMonkey directory under C:\Program
Files\mozilla.org.
My original search, described above, had "profiles.ini" as the filespec
and C:\ as the location, with all subdirectories to be searched.
In case it matters, this is WinXP Pro SP3, fully patched.
