I don't know if I messed it up which I probably did and I don't know what happened. I use two profiles. The default for the aurora/nightly and the one I made for the stable version. The default profile has the compatibility reporter and I wanted to install a program which wouldn't let me, so I changed the profile for the stable release to the default one. Somehow, ever since I can't access the manager in the start menu. So if I want to use the nightly and stable version at the same time, I can't anymore. When I log onto the administrator account, the manager comes up in the start menu and not in mine. Since i guess the manger is missing on my account now, I can't change the shortcuts to put it on a different profile.

Is Firefox completely exited/closed first before starting the ProfileManager?

Yea. I used it a couple times, so I know I have to close firefox. Also, I asked this late last night so I have to finish editing the post.
