why do I need to create a profile?

bold text Firefox has been my browser forever. When I tried to open it this morning I was invited to create a profile, so no profile, no Firefox..... I've never had to do this before and am reluctant because of the apparent threat of losing all my passwords and bookmarks. I'm 85 years of age so don't need this complication. Any help would be appreciated, complicated high tech answer will probably be beyond me. Brian.

Hi,

If you haven't done anything yet, you should be able to skip this. If you attach a screenshot, I hope I'll tell you how exactly.
