I have been using the synchronization of bookmarks and settings with my account for years. A few days ago, Firefox suddenly asked me if I wanted to create a profile. Since I had never used this feature in depth before, I selected the default “Original Profile” option. Since then, the profile name “Original Profile” has always been displayed in the tab title bar. I don't understand the point of this, but it causes me major problems because I manage my passwords using KeePass. To log in to the desired pages with Auto-Type, KeePass recognizes the tab title bar and automatically enters the data. Due to the above-mentioned change in Firefox, all my passwords are now useless because the profile name is displayed everywhere in the title bar and I would have to resave Auto-Type for all stored passwords (several hundred). This is very annoying. Why was this introduced and why is there no option to disable it? Very annoying!!!!!

When will there be a solution for this?

Hi,

Sorry for that. The issue is tracked under bug 1976217, but I don't think there's an ETA for the fix.
