HP Pavilion dv7
The as-shipped plus updates W7 home is on one partition.
W7U is on another partition.
The following SMs are on an apps partition. I started using 2.50 a few
months ago. I just got 2.48 and am using it now.
User agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:49.0) Gecko/20100101
Firefox/49.0 SeaMonkey/2.46

The profiles are on a data partition. Mail is in a separate tree on the
same data partition as the profiles.
OSs, apps and data structure has been stable for a few years.
*********************************
I mostly use the W7U partition. I took the machine on the road for
forty days, and all seemed OK. When I got home the first time I ran SM
2.50 under W7U there was no personal data. Prefs.js had been replaced
by three zero files numbered i,2,3, and one basic prefs.js file. Later
I noticed other data files were also empty.
I replaced the profile, booted W7 home, and everything was OK. I tried
all three of the above SM versions, and if I run any SM version under
W7U it trashes the data files.
I have had a file manager open and watched the files being changed. I
have a monitor that catches the activity, but most of the files are
changed before I can click block.
Whatever is causing this seems to only effect the profile, but is not
located in the profile, nor the app, because replacing those has no effect.
Ideas?

PS: Things like this is a primary reason I have redundant OSs.
