Hello Mike and sorry for the late response. Chrome profile Path is: `C:\Users\user\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\profile name`. 
I cannot open the missing profiles in Chrome because they are not displayed. I mean I have 12 profile folders and 12 profiles in Chrome. Firefox is offering to import from those 12 Chrome profiles and can import data from them. I think I found some steps at least to display extensions errors(`DOMException: Could not get children of file(C:\Users\al3x_\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Profile 12\Extensions) because it does not exist`):

1. Make a Chrome profile with some extensions.
2. Close Chrome and delete the profile contents (e.g  C:\Users\user\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\profile name). 
3. Open Firefox, enable extensions (browser.migrate.chrome.extensions.enabled: true).
4. Open the migration window and observe the console.

If more information is needed please let me know.
