i upgraded my OS to Windows 7 Ultimate and this batch file:

    • clip**

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Thunderbird\thunderbird.exe" -P G:\tempProfile\zau72b01.default

    • clip**

no longer opens Thunderbird directly to my Comcast Inbox; instead, i get the screenshot referenced above.

how do i successfully point to that profile?

thanks, -john gibb

Please post the contents of your profiles.ini file.

What batch file are you talking about?

G:\tempProfile\zau72b01.default

You cannot specify a path to a profile folder as a command line option for Thunderbird to start that profile.
