I have downloaded and deleted Firefox a dozen times and history and cache and still it is not allowing me to have the Chose User Profile to pop up

I have been trying for the last 2 days to get the Firefox -Choose User Profile to come up and each time I add the below in the terminal

/Applications/Firefox.app/Contents/MacOS/Firefox-bin -P

I get

Alans-MacBook-Pro:~ alanbmillard$ /Applications/Firefox.app/Contents/MacOS/Firefox-bin -P -bash: /Applications/Firefox.app/Contents/MacOS/Firefox-bin: No such file or directory Alans-MacBook-Pro:~ alanbmillard$

So it states no such file or directory when Firefox is definately in the Applications folder

Any thoughts or suggestions? Thank you in advance

The /Applications/Firefox.app/Contents/MacOS/firefox-bin -P should work if both Firefox is not running and is located there.

Note: If your Firefox application is in a location other than /Applications/Firefox.app/, adjust the entry.

Hi James

Thanks for responding so quickly. As can be seen on the attached image of my Application Folder, Firefox is definitely there. Also in the lower right it shows that Firefox was already "quit".

I also made sure my trash can had no Firefox files in there and it is totally empy

I still get No such file or directory
