Having two different profiles and have always had the choice between those two when opening Firefox. By accident I unmarked the check box that the profilemanager shows up upon startup. When trying to reactivate profilemanager through terminal I just get an errormessage. What can I do to get the profilemanager back again.

You can open the file profiles.ini in a text editor and change StartWithLastProfile=1 to StartWithLastProfile=0 

[General]
StartWithLastProfile=0
