I would like to create another firefox profile to do multiple version testing however i can't seem to do this in firefox 3.6 Instructions so far have be to run "firefox.exe -ProfileManager" or "firefox.exe -P" in the windows run command prompt but all I see in a new browser that opens.

Then, I see where the actually folder for my profile sits under C:\Users\MYNAME\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles but I don't know what I'm supposed to do from there

This happened

Every time Firefox opened

The profile manager will only open if all Firefox processes are closed. You can check that on the Processes tab in the Task Manager (Shift+Ctrl+ESC)

If you can't get it to work then try to add the -no-remote switch to see if that brings up the profile Manager. firefox.exe -no-remote -P Add a space before -no-remote and before -P
