Firefox creates a new profile on every launch, despite changing the profile manager.
I have created multiple Firefox profiles, but no matter how many tutorials I follow online, it still does it. As well as that, I cannot select any of the profiles that I have created.

A possible cause is a problem with the profiles.ini file.
- Windows: %AppData%\Mozilla\Firefox\
C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\<profile>\ - Linux: ~/.mozilla/firefox/
- Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/Firefox/
You can use one of these to make Firefox create a new default profile or reuse an existing profile:
- Delete the profiles.ini file to force Firefox to create a new default profile
- Use the Profile Manager to create a new profile
Use "Choose Folder" when you create a new profile to select the location of a lost profile and recover this profile
