Also, I don't see anything in the download dropdown If I delete the profile, it recreates it and it now works -- so one of the files, other than the 3 I deleted, is the problem ???? which one ????

OK, here is the answer: XULSTORE.JSON

I replaced it with one from a good profile. I guess u can just delete it and let it recreate it. I think that is where I got the good one.
