The easy way to insure you get a profile where you want it is:

Go to a partition that can be accessed by all OSs that you want to 
access that profile.  Do not use a partition that has an OS on it.

Create a sub-directory anywhere you want and name it anything you want.

It appears you are using SM.  Put the SM program anywhere you want.  Do 
not put it on a partition that has an OS.

Create a run object/shortcut where the run command is in the form 
"X:\SMVersionXX\seamonkey.exe -Profilemanager".  When activated, the 
profilemanager window will open.

Chose create new profile.  Take SM to the sub-directory you created and 
have it use that sub-directory as the new profile.

If the sub-directory is empty. SM will create a complete new profile. 
If you have copied an existing profile to the new sub-directory, SM will 
use what that SM version is able to use and create or update the rest.
