418452 2006-01-05 09:45:00 Ok I was browsing the web with firefox and then for some reason it froze....so I closed firefox and when I tried to reopen it...I get a message saying that I need to choose a user profile... I clicked on the default option and I get a pop-up stating that is already in use...I close it and try again a few times and the default profile is still in use...

So the only other option is to create a new profile... I just create a new one...and I am able to launch firefox...but alll of bookmarks and history website are gone...

How do I access the default profile....

Thank you

Close all open Firefox windows, do CTRL Shift Esc and click the Processes tab, select firefox.exe and end it.

Then re-try

Or reboot the computer.

Right now I would reboot the computer then
Start > Run > firefox.exe -profilemanager
and delete the new profile you just created, should be fine after that.
