Everytime I restart my computer, all of me preferences seem to be completely disappear, but then I went to my profiles folder and found out that my profile is still there, but not showing up in about:profiles. I have to manually search for the profile folder and add it back. I have tried refreshing my browser, reinstalling the browser, deleting the profiles, setting my profile as default, and tried several of the beta firefox clients just in case. I even reimaged my device completely (for other reasons) and it didn't help.

I think it's fair to note that I am on a Domain and a profiledefault.(county extension) shows up. Could there be a group policy that affects profiles like this? I haven't noticed it on other computers I have used though. Any ideas or suggestions?
