I am just doing some fixes for 2.55+ in a vm and there at least it
seems to be a bit stubborn. If you create and select the folder
your profile location will be overwritten. But if you create the
folder and then change the profile name it works. Was able to
create a profile D:\profiled\u5kls6wt.UserD1 and it shows in
about:support .
Don't think it is different in 2.49.1. This code hasn't been
changed for years I think.
I've used --ProfileManager on initial startup and rejected the
default name and location for at least a decade, always creating a
directory first to contain profiles where I want them, then pointing
to that location and typing in a suitable profile name when the
profile manager opens.
I've not used the profile manager to add an additional a profile in
at least as long. Once profiles.ini exists, it's simple to edit it,
to add a profile, or relocate one, or change the name of one.
Felix, I would appreciate it you could give it a try, even just to set
yourself up a "Test" profile at some different hard disk location. ;-)
