I upgraded to 1.31.  Eerything seemed to be ok.  I had to reinstall modem, lost
Desktop, now stored as D.bak.  Desktop folders are still there when I go to
Documents and Settings.  However, when I open Mozilla (in All Users), I get a
new browser, without all my previous settings.  I can't even find my old
Bookmarks anywhere, I have searched and searched.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. I don't want to reproduce this problem, and i'm not even going to try.
2.
3.



Expected Results:  
My Desktop going out is not Mozilla's fault, but why did all my Bookmarks ans
Preferences disappear?
Well... Just look at releases notes to find profile location.

For your upgrading : overwriting a previous mozilla will make your bug to be
closed as invalid.

http://www.mozilla.org/releases/mozilla1.3.1/#install

"Install into a new empty directory. Installing on top of previously installed
builds may cause problems."

How did you upgrade ? Overwriting a previous mozilla ? Or installing it cleanly ?
duping to a similar report that's confirmed
