Found in

  • Nightly 138.0a1

Affected versions

  • Nightly 138.0a1

Tested platforms

  • Affected platforms: macOS 15, Windows 11.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Navigate to about:preferences#general.
  2. In the Profiles section click on the Manage Profiles.
  3. Press the Esc key to dismiss the Profiles selector modal.

Expected result

  • The Profiles selector modal should be dismissed when pressing Esc, just like other modals in about:preferences (e.g., Advanced in the Fonts section or Choose in the Language section).

Actual result

  • The Profiles selector modal is not dismisses when pressing the Esc key.

Regression range

  • This is not a regression; it's introduced with the Profiles Switching feature.

Since a workaround exists (close the tab or hit the X button), this is not a blocker for 138.
