Mihail Posted November 5, 2004 Posted November 5, 2004 Well,it all started when the Profile Manager popped up and asked me which profile I wanted to use.It was November 2,2004...Anyway,I clicked the profile "default" on it and it said it was already in use.I was mystified,but continued to create a new profile.Well,now I want it back,but the thing on the Help pages for Firefox didn't help(the "C:Program FilesMozilla Firefox" -P thing),so I was wondering if any of you had any suggestions. :-
Gobalopper Posted November 5, 2004 Posted November 5, 2004 Look for a parent.lock file in your profile directory and then delete it.
Mihail Posted November 6, 2004 Author Posted November 6, 2004 No luck. :- Where could I find this profile directory?Yes,I'm that stupid ;)
gryphon Posted November 8, 2004 Posted November 8, 2004 did you include system and hidden files in your search ?

Mihail Posted November 10, 2004 Author Posted November 10, 2004 Nevermind,I got it.I asked around on a few more Firefox support forums,and found that instead of typing firefox.exe -P,you have to type firefox.exe -ProfilemanagerDamn Firefox Help. :PAnyway,thread locked. :)
