I wanted to delete my profile and start a new one. Figured it would help speed my FF up a bit. Well, I used the Profile Manager to delete my old profile and create a new one. I made sure to click "Don't Delete Files". Well, when I opened up my new Profile, it was default, factory FF. Please tell me there's some way to recover my settings. Is it because my new Profile is in the wrong directory? I chose the default one that the manager gave me. (C:\Documents and Settings\Admin\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles)

I'm on Nightly 11.0a1(2011-12-20)

If you create a new profile and choose to use that new profile then you start with fresh files.
You need to transfer files from the old profile to the new profile if you want to use data from your previous Firefox version.
