I have tested this issue with the latest Firefox Beta (85.0b3 Build ID - 20201217185930) installed on Windows 10 x64, Mac 10.15, and Linux Mint 20 x64.
Now, I can confirm that the "this._store is undefined" and the "An InvalidStateError: An attempt was made to use an object that is not, or is no longer, usable, a this._store is undefined" errors are no longer displayed in the browser console. However, I have observed that the "Can't find profile directory" error is still displayed when the page is opened and when navigating through slides.
@Punam, could you please confirm if the "Can't find profile directory" error is caused by the "about:welcome" page or not? I'm asking this because is the only thing that blocks us to mark this issue as verified.

@mcoman That's correct scope of this patch didn't cover fixing "Can't find profile directory" console error , it doesn't seem to be invoked from about:welcome page and can be seen on New Tab page on browser open.

Thank you for the confirmation @Punam!
Based on the verification done and mentioned in comment 4 and the confirmation received in comment 5 I'm marking this issue as VERIFIED in Firefox 85.
