I have asked this before. I installed 4.01 on windows 7. Everytime I attempt to open it the system reports a missing profile and will not open. Have we identified what is happening?

  1. Please run "firefox.exe -ProfileManager" and try creating a new profile.
  2. More information here: managing profiles.
