I think that I remember - the conversion was done without overwriting the previous one. I always do - "de-install the current version" then "install the new one". the conversion is inside the profile which will be converted. ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

The other thing that may work is back up with Mozbackup then install the latest version and use Mozbackup to install your history and settings into there.
