New Profile Manager destroyed my profile

Making moves

The new profile manager (144.0) destroyed my profile.

  1. It overwrote my profile with "Profile 1" and deleted the link to my original profile
  2. An entry in the new profile manager UI for "Original Profile" does not function when clicked
  3. Pressing "Delete" on any profile in the new UI does nothing
  4. I cannot choose which folder to store new profiles in the new profile manager UI
  5. The new profile manager UI does not match what I see in the old about:profiles UI

To resolve I tried copying the contents of my original profile into the newly created "Profile 1" which is several gigabytes of data into a drive I don't have that space. 

When I opened Firefox the new profile UI disappeared from the menu, about:profiles doesn't show the profile that I copied into, and I'm not sure which profile I'm currently using.
