User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/46.0.2486.0 Safari/537.36 Edge/13.10586

Steps to reproduce:

Launch Firefox without a user profile.  The default profile is created and files and settings in %ProgramFiles%\Mozilla Firefox\browser\defaults\profile are ignored.

This includes prefs.js and cert8.db which we use to configure default root ca for our filtering system.


Actual results:

Nothing.  A new profile was created and all files in the folder were ignored.  Root CA updates were not used and prefs were ignored.


Expected results:

Root CA db file should have been copied to the new profile and prefs.js should have been applied when the new profile was launched.
