145757 - Deleted profile returns when new build is installed

Status: VERIFIED INVALID

(Core Graveyard :: Profile: BackEnd, defect)

Description

[Susie Wyshak]

For the last few builds I have noticed that several old profiles I deleted
return without fail on the next build I install.

I have seen this 2 or 3 times, most recently in Gecko/20020512.

Expected: Deleted profiles are not show in pick list.

Susie, Are the deleted profiles ones that you had migrated from 4.x?

Susie,

Are the deleted profiles ones you had migrated from 4.x ?

Sorry for the delay.

Yes, these were 4.x profiles that return when every time I start using a new
Mozilla build.

Then, that's the expected behavior. Whenever a new version is launched (with the
installer) it will read in the 4.x profiles. As far as deleting them - when you
delete a profile in mozilla (even one migrated from 4.x) it does not touch the
4.x profile in the 4.x profile list. That's why they come back.
