multiple profiles in the profile.ini file

Hello, Tbird users!

I'm trying to better understand the makeup of my Tbird's profile.ini file as I wish to add an existing second profile which I've got stored on an external drive. I'd like to see a sample profile.ini file that already contains several existing profiles --not necessarily creating a new profile, but adding an older profile to the existing profile.ini file.

I'm hoping to get some examples from users who already have profile.ini files that contain two or three profiles.

Any help would be appreciated.

Use Tbird's Profile Manager to add a new profile and point it to the folder of the existing profile on the external drive using the Choose Folder button. The Profile Manager will take care of updating the profile.ini file with the correct entries. This will save you a lot of time that you'd otherwise spend tinkering with the profile.ini file. See Profile Manager - Create and remove Thunderbird profiles for easy steps to follow. Don't mind the incorrect numbering of steps on that article.
