A Firefox profile directory is ~/.mozilla/firefox/<profile_dir> ,

well, excuse my presuming that intelligent linux users, including
many new linux users, reading my post would know that the
"_user_profiles_" are in the user's directory, aka, "~". which is
the *top* _directory_ of the _profile_directory_.

and to correct what you posted, actual path of to the "<profile_dir>"
as you put it is;

  /home/[username]/.mozilla/firefox/wxzy1234.default/
aka;
  ~/.mozilla/firefox/wxzy1234.default/

were in, 'wxyz1234' is a random mix of letters and numbers.

therefore, all a user need do is rename ".mozilla", firefox will
rebuild entire new path, starting with ".mozilla" in the users
home directory. it does not have to _pre-exist_.


btw, in your haste to correct me, i do notice that you did not
get far enough into my post to see the following:

=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=
btw, you will not hurt my feelings, and i doubt any of followers
of this list if you would cut the 'dead wood' when you reply.

thank you.
=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=

in case you are not aware, "dead wood" means portions of a post
that are not related or reference to what one is replying to.

in closing, KAFBA. ;-)
