Sup guys. Big Limpin' here. Hi!

So i was using Firefox...then closed it...then reopened the program. And it says something about "default user" not being valid, or something. Fiorefox wouldnt open. So i click the button "create new user"...and it worked, but now all my favorites and stuff are AWOL. Now every time i open Firefox, it uses this new profile. I want old one back

I know i just need to switch, but cant find the place to do this.

Any suggestions?

this 'new user' stuff usually happens when you try to launch firefox and it's already running in another process. cancel out and kill all instances of firefox.exe in the task manager the next time it occurs.
