The case described in comment 0 is fixed on Win7_64, Nightly 46, 32bit, ID 20160105030211 I'm not marking it as "Verified" yet, because I think it still may cause issues (see comment 5)
The added block of code does nothing when user deletes the last profile. Could somebody test the following scenario? (I have ~16 profiles currently) 1. Open Brand NEW profile manager, delete all profiles 2. Click button "Create a New Profile", click "Next", click "Finish" [profile is created] 3. Click button "Set as default profile" next to the only profile (just in case) 4. Click button "Start Nightly" at the bottom of the page Expectations: Nightly should launch the profile created in Step 2
