Hello grudgeboy

press Windows key + R to open the Run box then type %APPDATA%\Mozilla\Firefox (or copied/paste from here) and click "OK" to quickly open the appropriate folder,

then find profiles.ini fileand rename it (right-click on mouse and select rename) to profiles.iniOLD , 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.

This new "default" profile doesn't contain any of the profile data or settings stored in your old "default" profile folder, which still exists but is no longer accessible from the Profile Manager.

Your existing Firefox user profile data, which includes bookmarks, passwords, cookies, preference settings and added extensions, will no longer appear in the new profile but you can transfer the data from the old profile folder to the new default profile folder.
