You were so helpful previously in terms of guiding me in moving files

the c: drive so I can get it moved?
This page should help:

This profile is the one which is taking up over 30% of my drive space
currently...
That doesn't sound right. What makes you think it's taking up so much
space? How small is your HD?
I have made the new profile and located it in the new directory, now I
receive a message " SeaMonkey cannot use the profile "Default1" It may
be in use, unavailable or damage. Please choose another profile or
create a new one".
This is the 3rd profile and still not able to access...
What is the next move?
Make sure SeaMonkey is closed when you copy the files over.
Hello Chris,
I re-sent the files to the new location and still cannot remove the
extra profiles or link to the moved files...
What have I done to prevent this?

Locate the file profiles.ini. It should be in
<C:\Users\xxx\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\SeaMonkey\profiles.ini>, where
"xxx" is your Windows user name (NOT a SeaMonkey profile name). That
file contains the pointers to your profiles.
In profiles.ini, you should see all profiles listed, with their names,
locations, and a flag that indicates whether the locations are complete
or relative to the location of profile.ini. An example is:
[Profile0]
Name=SamuelS
IsRelative=0
Path=C:\myprofiles\SeaMonkey\Sam
Default=1
This means this is the first profile (numbered from 0), the profile is
named "SamuelS", that the Path is complete, the profile is at
<C:\myprofiles\SeaMonkey\Sam> (no security hash in the name in the form
of uchx8jc7.Sam), and that this is your primary (default) profile. (For
my own use, I did not use hashes to name the folders where I placed my
profiles since my profiles are "hidden" by placing them on a drive other
than C.)
If you new profiles are not indicated in profiles.ini, that is the cause
of your problem. In a plain-text editor (e.g., Notepad, Wordpad, but
NOT Word), edit the file to add your new profiles and point to them.
Each profile has a unique {Profilen], where "n" is a number (e.g.,
[Profile1], [Profile2], [Profile3], etc).
David,
Looking at this today and I find that the IsRelative=0 for three (3)
accounts and three of them have the same Path.
Can I delete the ones I do not want or need or how to reset?
As well, how can change, safely, [Profile1] to be [Profile2], if this is
feasible?
TIA - SamuelS
