When my wife set up SM in her new W10 computer, there was a bit of
confusion about profiles. Eventually she got the one she wanted, and
deleted the others (in Profile Manager). Now when she clicks on the SM
logo it wants to open one of the profiles she deleted, resulting in
File
Not Found because that profile no longer exists.
However, in Profile Manger she has indicated the correct one and
clicked
Use Profile. SM refuses to use this (correct) one and keeps opening
with
File Not Found.
How do we fix this? All help gratefully appreciated!
When you could not find the INI file it was you had Windows default of
*hiding* known file type. Never understood why they do that when file
extensions are so important in Windows.
Here's what the ini file says (comments in earlier message). (Can we
edit this? It's in Note Pad.):
Yes but you have to do it with SeaMonkey closed. If Profile0 is the one
you want then just comment-out the other profile with preceding ";"
[General]
Start with last profile=1
[Profile0]
Name=Linda2
IsRelative=1
Path=Profiles/random#.Linda2
Default=1
[Profile1]
Name=Default User
IsRelative=1
Path=Profiles/different random#.Default User
;[Profile1]
;Name=Default User
;IsRelative=1
;Path=Profiles/different random#.Default User
save and start SeaMonkey
Took your advice with the asterisks, saved the file, then opened it
again. Result: the "wrong" profile information was gone (!), but SM
still opens with File Not Found referring to the wrong profile.
Question:(displaying our ignorance) should we have also edited the ini
file so the first line "Start with last profile=1" be changed to point
to profile 0 instead?
