As I already explained in my reply to Smiles, with SeaMonkey 2.0 and
later you need to add "-no-remote" *in addition to* "-P" in order to
launch the Profile Manager while another instance of SeaMonkey is
already running.
The only way I am able to open the Profile Manager is in the
Browser/Tools/Change Profile menu. Even this, however, is not
malfunctionaly. The Select User Profile window opens, and shows the
default user, but when I click on "open profile", nothing happens.
Well, I would have expected some kind of error message but basically
it's correct that you cannot select the profile you are already using
(and it must be that one as long as only one is listed!). Remember,
"Switch Profile" (which is the actual name of the menu item) is for
switching to *another* profile!
I then went to the option "Manage Profiles" and created a new profile and
selected the folder in which to place it. Back to the "Manage User
Profiles", there are now TWO profiles listed, neither of which will open
with the "Use Profile" button. Although the "rename" button opens the
correct window and accepts what I type it, no rename occurs, and neither
profile can be deleted.
It's correct that another profile appeared. If you chose the same
profile folder as for the currently active profile then it's even
expected that the second profile didn't work either.
The Profile Manager appears to be corrupted, but unistalling and
reinstalling 2.0.4 has not corrected this problem. Can anyone help me?
Un-/Reinstalling SeaMonkey won't solve your problem.
Does the Profile Manager appear if SeaMonkey is *not* running while you
use the Profile Manager shortcut? If yes: See my first sentence above.
If not you should search your hard drive for a file called profiles.ini
inside a folder called SeaMonkey. If you rename that file you can start
over (use the Profile Manager to locate your existing profile).
