User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.5b) Gecko/20030904
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.5b) Gecko/20030904
Upon updating to new build, Profile Manager(PM) has correct list and profiles
are still present but PM doesn't pick them up. It now always starts with the
correct list of profiles but either starts up as a fresh installation or doesn't
complete a migration if requested.
Also, bookmarks ARE recognized, (master)passwords are LOST, all preferences are
gone.
Please advise as to how to get PM to (re)point to profile directory.
Thanx in advance.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Download and install build 2003090404
2. Start up
3. Mozilla 1.5b doesn't recognize anything except bookmarks
Actual Results:
Profile Manager loses ability to connect with current profiles.
Expected Results:
Profile Mnanager should maintain connection to profile directory.
I will wait until I hear from someone. I did find the profiles so they were not
lost but I think I will have to repoint all the profiles if I do not hear from
anyone soon. I searched for an hour to see if this happened before at least in
the 1.5 version but found no recent bug reports.

Actually, I DID lose the entire profile and all my email since October 2002.
Stupido me, for not backing up the data files. Gonna see if I can retrieve them.
It's funny that still a few of the older profiles under different names are
left, though.

You lost the prefs.js file in your profile.
Use http://matti.no-ip.org/profile.txt

1.7a has no problem finding either 1.4, 1.5, 1.6 or recent nightly build
profiles. I tested this before we shipped alpha.
