profiles.ini file not doing what I need it to (and it used to)

I access my Tbird profile from different devices. My old laptop self-destructed, so I need to configure a new one. The profile I use in on a central server, so I need to have the laptop find it.

What always worked for me in the past was to edit profile.ini, in ...Appdata/Roaming/Thunderbird which currently looks like:

[InstallD78BF5DD33499EC2] Default=Profiles/ibbgujfs.default-release Locked=1

[Profile1] Name=default IsRelative=1 Path=Profiles/p3uryki2.default Default=1

[Profile0] Name=default-release IsRelative=1 Path=Profiles/ibbgujfs.default-release

[Profile2] Name=Central-Store IsRelative=0 Path=//NEW-HUB/F/TbirdDad

[General] StartWithLastProfile=1 Version=2

Central-store is the one I need to use. But when I go to Troubleshooting / about-profiles it does not show up.

And just to be clear, it is useless for me (or anyone) to destroy, move or replicate the profile data without losing coherent access from more than one device.

use the profile manager, or even about:profiles from the troubleshooting infdormation. Manual editing of files is a method that used to work, but post profile per install it is no longer an exercise that is worth the effort. Use the GUI to create a new profile in the appropriate location.

I had forgotten that the profiles.ini file need the UNIX file specification notation, not the Windows one, so Path=//NEW-HUB/F/TbirdDad needed to be Path=\\NEW-HUB\F\TbirdDad

With that change it worked
