29633 - Initial profile creation does not indicate default profile path

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(SeaMonkey :: Startup & Profiles, enhancement, P3)

Description

[beryan]

When loading M13 on x86 platform/win2k, for first time:
Profile creation window pops up. I want to see where it wants to put my profile.
No provision for this.
Browse lets you choose a NEW destination, but where is the default?
If it's just a subdir of mozilla, then I'd leave it. But for all the end
user knows it could be in c:\temp\fredsprofile
I think this should be added to make it more usable.

thanks

ben

ok, now i'm really going to reassign it. Adding Vera on this bug because it
sounds like a good thing to add to the release notes if its not there already.

So, where does it put the profile, by default? I'll add it to the release notes 
as soon as I know.
