Where Is Your SeaMonkey Profile Folder?

SeaMonkey profile folder on Windows and Linux holding browser, mail and composer data.

Last updated

SeaMonkey keeps browser, mail and composer data in one Mozilla-style profile tree. Profiles.ini maps the random-suffixed folders.

Mail stores live inside the profile (Mail and ImapMail subfolders). Copy the whole profile rather than extracting mail files.

Where SeaMonkey stores this, by platform

Windows
%APPDATA%\Mozilla\SeaMonkey\Profiles

Holds profiles.ini plus profile folders with browser and mail data. Close SeaMonkey before copying.

Linux
~/.mozilla/seamonkey

Same layout. Mail and ImapMail subfolders travel inside the profile.

Frequently asked questions

How do I move my SeaMonkey profile?

Copy the profile folder plus profiles.ini with SeaMonkey closed. Browser, mail stores and address books travel together.
