No thanks to Edge dev/support team, After more than 1.5 years I finally just fixed this issue by creating a new profile in Firefox then removed it immediately, now Edge detects my default Firefox profile! Which proves that it was an Edge detection issue not Firefox's.

  Clearly not.
  
  Edge Chromium imports Firefox favorites in Version 78.0.244.0 (Official build) dev (64-bit) [see below] and I have not experienced problems importing from Firefox in the past, so if you don't see the option to import from Firefox, the issue is probably specific to your computing environment.
  
  I suggest that you contact Microsoft Edge Insider support to work on the specifics of the issue you are encountering. The support staff is competent and will be likely to resolve your issue.

    Guess what ?? I tried this on like 10 machines with "Chrome, Opera, Edge, SRWare Iron & Vivaldi" and it only worked on 2 of them !!!! I thought Vivaldi was working but I was wrong! These 2 machines are working with all Chromium browsers not just Vivaldi !! Which is very weird and clearly it's a Chromium issue!
    
    I also thought this IS the Microsoft Edge Insider Support ?!
