NO!! In my case [%localappdata%\mozilla\seamonkey] is [C:\Users\David\AppData\Local\Mozilla\SeaMonkey]. If my profile was indeed there, deleting that would delete my entire profile, including my bookmarks, preferences, passwords, extensions, etc. That would be a disaster. However, I do not have my profiles anywhere on my C-drive. Thus, only my default profile would be deleted, a profile that I never use. -- David E. Ross <http://www.rossde.com> Consider: * Most state mandate that drivers have liability insurance. * Employers are mandated to have worker's compensation insurance. * If you live in a flood zone, flood insurance is mandatory. * If your home has a mortgage, fire insurance is mandatory. Why then is mandatory health insurance so bad?? _______________________________________________ support-seamonkey mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
