Hello strenny

go to ~/Library/Firefox ( The tilde character (~) refers to the current user's Home folder, so ~/Library is the /Macintosh HD/Users/<username>/Library folder) and find the profiles.ini file and delete it, then when you start firefox again, a new default profile folder will be created and only a single profile, the new "default", will be listed in the Profile Manager.

The profiles.ini file is located inside the "Firefox" folder in the profile folder path.


thank you
