For 2.49.4: 1. On the menu bar, select [Help > Troubleshooting Information]. 2. On the Troubleshooting Information window, under Application Basics, select the Open Folder button to the right of Profile Folder. 3. Note the name of the folder just below the Windows Explorer title bar. 4. To the left of the name of the folder in Windows Explorer, select the up arrow. 5. Copy the the folder to someplace else on your PC. Repeat the above if you have multiple profiles. I would do this every time I updated SeaMonkey. I have now frozen my SeaMonkey version at 2.49.5; that is, I no longer update. That is because later versions are not compatible with extension I use. There are no equivalent compatible extensions and no inherent capabilities in SeaMonkey that provide the same functionality. -- David E. Ross <http://www.rossde.com/> Early in the COVID-19 pandemic, President Trump told us the virus would disappear by April. Later, he said it would be gone when the weather turned hot. In Ventura County (population less than 850,000), there were 2,134 new COVID-19 infections in September as the temperature reached 117F. That month, there were also 36 deaths, a persistent daily death rate through the entire month of 1.2%. At one time, Trump claimed COVID-19 was a Democrat hoax. Now Trump has the virus. Schadenfreude! I don't think COVID-19 will disappear until after Trump disappears. _______________________________________________ support-seamonkey mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
