You can sort out your profile location very easily, *without*
reinstalling SeaMonkey. All you have to do is edit the profile location
config file: profiles.ini. The location of the profiles.ini is:
Windows: %APPDATA%\Mozilla\SeaMonkey\profiles.ini
Linux: ~/mozilla/seamonkey/profiles.ini

Why have two profiles?? Your Linux can "see" your Windows, so if you
point *both* your Linux SM and your Windows SM to the same Windows
profile, you have all your data available to you, doesn't matter what OS
you are in at the time!!
Well firstly with respect to my situation, Window and Linux are not
installed on the same machine. I only have Windows on this desktop,
Linux is on my laptop and other systems.
What I was showing was [1] where the default locations for SeaMonkey
profiles are for both OSes. If you have a dual boot situation then yes
the Linux system can reference the Windows profile. MS is not so
accommodating for non-MS-filesystems ;-) so the Linux install would
reference the Windows profile and not the reverse. If you were to share
a profile in a dual boot situation the profiles.ini will still have to
be located as indicated in [2] for each respective OS. For the Linux
profiles.ini you will have to use the absolute path to the profile
folder on the mounted Windows partition, e.g.,
path=/mnt/windows_partition/some/path/to/profile/folder
Mostly I was showing you that there is no need to reinstall SeaMonkey to
"fix" your pathing problem. You can move your profile anywhere you wish
by editing the respective profile.ini.

Take care,
