mysticpain Posted July 8, 2004 Report Share Posted July 8, 2004 When I launch shortcut for Fire Fox 0.9 I get a choose user profile menu instead of the browser launching. I have only the default user profile. Apparently the application is running somewhere in the background. What is a way to avoid this problem so the application stops and will restart normally again later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liquidzoo Posted July 8, 2004 Report Share Posted July 8, 2004 Look in your ~/.mozilla/firefox/default.something/ folder for a file called lock If it's there, delete it and everything should be fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed the N00B Posted July 9, 2004 Report Share Posted July 9, 2004 Or it could be that there is already another session running and you may be suffering from the problem discussed in this thread: Link to other board (post 23) (Hope no-one minds me linking to another board) I had this problem and this fix worked for me. (Note - the fix did NOT work on Firefox0.8, but worked when I switched to Firefox0.9.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
