Default Help with PC

Hi guys

Would any of you computer gurus know how to change the user profile on mozilla firefox. My bro changed it to a new name and said it just popped up and wouldn't let him open as default as it always has been.

How do i access the user profile bit so i can change back to the way it was as i have important information on there which i really need.

Thanks
Bill

Close all Firefox/Thunderbird windows you have open, then click on start, then run. type in "firefox.exe -profilemanager" (without the quotes.) That'll bring up the profile manager, just select your old profile from the list and press "Start Firefox".

If all it brings up is a new Firefox window, then you haven't closed all instances of it.
