198528 - Inability to Open New Navigator Window After Closing All But Download Windows

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 122698

(SeaMonkey :: Startup & Profiles, defect)

Description

[Neil Wehneman]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; Konqueror/3.1; Linux)
Build Identifier: Mozilla 1.3

Process: 
 
After using my main profile to open downloads in seperate windows and closing all other 
Navigator windows, any attempt to open a new Navigator window results in the Profile 
Manager complaining that my main profile is in use. 
	 
I believe it would make sense in a situation like this to have Mozilla figure out what profile 
opened the download windows, and launch a Navigator window based off of that.  I am 
unable to create a new window off of the download windows due to lack of a filebar on 
them. 
 
Note:  In my current case I am downloading ISO's, so it would be a major pain to cancel 
the downloads just to open a new Navigator window 

Reproducible: Didn't try

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Open Mozilla Navigator 
2.Begin download(s) using seperate windows for each download 
3.Close all Navigator windows except for the downloads 
4.Attempt to run new Mozilla Navigator window 
5.Profile Manager comes up, and claims that my main profile is in use 
Actual Results:  
Profile Manager comes up, and claims that my main profile is in use (which is technically 
true) 

Expected Results:  
I believe it would make sense in a situation like this to have Mozilla figure out what profile 
opened the download windows, and launch a Navigator window based off of that.  I am 
unable to create a new window off of the download windows due to lack of a filebar on 
them.
