So, if I had my profile at
H:\here\there\anywhere\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Seamonkey\Profiles
would the %APPDATA%\Mozilla\Seamonkey command locate my Profile??
Putting profiles anywhere you want is easy and does not require editing
any existing files.
It helps if you understand sub-directories, and work in them rather than
the Win overlay "folders".
Create a sub-directory, anywhere Win has access, give it any name you
chose that is valid and compatible with surrounding files.
Put none, part, or all of an existing profile in the new sub-directory.
Create a new or edit an existing shortcut so that the target is in the
form of; "Y:\SM2495\seamonkey.exe -Profilemanager".
Run the shortcut. SM will open to profile manager. Select "create
profile". Pause and study each page. Profile manager is going to
suggest a default type profile in the default location. Scrap that.
Enter the name you wish to show on your profile menu. Lead SM to where
you created the new sub-directory.
When you finish, a profile menu will appear, with your new profile. Run
that profile. SM will create whatever it needs for that version. If in
your new profile you put an entire profile from a previous version, SM
will just update it. If you left the new profile empty, SM will create
a complete profile. If you just put a few files, maybe passwords, SM
will use what it can and create the rest.
By having SM always open to profile manager, you can add an new version
along side the old, and keep the old until you decide you like the new
better. And you can have as many profiles as you chose. I always have
several test profiles. That way if I want to try something I an not
concerned about breaking a working profile.
