Folks,
my Seamonkey (SM) installation has deteriorated over the years and I
intend to start over.
I will install a new copy of SM and create the needed profiles (no
problem).
I will locate the old and the new profile directories (no problem).
My question:
Which parts/files from the old profiles do I need to copy over into the
new profile directories to keep
+ e-mails
+ bookmarks
+ stored passwords
but nothing else?
In particular, I do not want the old configuration settings or
add-on-settings to survive.
I use Win 7 Pro and SM 2.53.3.
Thanks, regards
Manfred
Not your question, but why are you going to reinstall? What you want to
change is entirely within the profile.
The way I'd handle cleaning up the add-on settings would be via the
normal menu under Tools.
The way I'd handle cleaning up the configuration settings would be via
about:config and looking at the "user set" ones at the start of the
list, they are all in *bold*. Take a backup of the profile first and be
very careful about changing/deleting lines where the purpose is not
obvious, an alternative to that approach would be to use the "user set"
lines to see which settings you want to change and then do them via the
Edit -> Preferences interface.
