What happened?

How to reproduce:

1. Create a second profile, for example "Second Profile"
2. Switch to this profile, a second browser window with this profile will open
3. Close the window with the previous, main profile

4. Now you softlocked in Second Profile. You cannot switch to the main profile, either by completely restarting the browser, or through the profile manager. There is no option in the profile manager to switch to the previous profile. The only way to get your old profile back is to switch to it from the about:profiles tab

This is also can be reproduced on Windows.
