Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 391977

(Toolkit :: Crash Reporting, defect)

Description

[Ed Hume]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9pre) Gecko/2008051011 Minefield/3.0pre
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9pre) Gecko/2008051011 Minefield/3.0pre

I have two installations of Firefox: one is Firefox 2, which was installed via app and is the default Firefox installation. Its profile is the default profile. 

The other is a Minefield installation that is unpacked from zipfiles. It is not default, and has its own profile.

When I experienced a crash this evening, the crash reporting app - crashreporter.exe - started Minefield with my default profile. It did not keep track of which profile it had started from, and wanted to update all the fx2-compatible extensions in that profile.

Reproducible: Didn't try

Steps to Reproduce:
1. 2 Firefox profiles.
2. Crash a session in the non-default profile running Minefield.
3. Select "Restart" rather than "Quit Firefox" when the crash reporter shows up.
Actual Results:  
Minefield restarted, but with the default profile.

Expected Results:  
Should have restarted with the profile it started in.
