Affected versions

Nightly 67.0a1

Affected platforms

  • Mac OS 10.14, Ubuntu 16.04, Windows 10

Steps to reproduce

Preconditions: Use a clean install.

  1. Install FF on your OS
  2. Go to the terminal and create a new profile
    /Applications/FirefoxNightly.app/Contents/MacOS/firefox -createprofile TEST
    3.Close everything
  3. Start the Firefox from step 1 by double click on the Firefox icon (normal way), without using the Profile Manager.
  4. Go to about:profiles

Expected result

  • You see 3 profiles: default, default-"firefox version" and TEST

Actual result

  • The Default profile is missing.
Blocks: 1474285

The default profile is currently only created when there is only one existing profile and we don't want previous versions of Firefox to use it.

This means that the actual behaviour is the expected one, right? If that is the case please close it as Invalid.
