Error Message: Your profile can not be used....

Post by mp2000 »

I get the following error message when Iron is started: "Your profile can not be used because it is from a newer version of Iron. Some features may be unavailable. Please specify a different profile directory or use a newer version of Iron."

I have searched this forum and other forums for a resolution but I cannot find the folders that were supposed to be deleted or moved in the fixes that were suggested. Does anybody have any other suggestions?

you must also enable (tools / folder options / view) "view hidden folders"

Never mind my earlier answer. When I closed and restarted Iron I am getting the same error again. What gives? :(

uninstall completely iron (included delete the profile folders) and have a fresh install of the last iron (export your bookmarks, install lastpass for the passwords or synchronize with your gmail account)
