Hi

After last Firefox update, everytime I start it, it pops-up this profile manager and I have to click on Start Firefox. No matter I select default profile and select this that it is starting with this profile, it is keep opening Profile manager everytime which is very anoying.

I tried to create another profile and this new profile is opening right away, but on this another profile all is "blank", I don't have anything there, not autocomplete, no passwords, nothing. Yes, I copied default profile files to this newly created profile but nothing changed, no autocomplete , no password, nothing like I had on default profile. So for now I am struggling with this pop-up everytime I open Firefox.

Any solution to this ?

Try to delete compatibility.ini in this profile.
