Dev channel update to 79.0.308.1 is live
>Fixed an issue where the first run experience greets users as “Profile 1” instead of their name.
Welp, all I get now instead of default Profile 1 is a metric ton of 0000000000 instead.
First noticed it on some Canary version (happened some version after new profile icons were already added). It also messed up Privacy and Security settings page by adding this message on top so now I have huge scrollbar on the bottom to scroll through all those zeroes:
Hi 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000, we value your privacy.
Anyone else affected by this issue? Didn't see anyone mention it in the Canary discussions. This is still an issue on the current Canary build 79.0.309.0.
Yeah, creating a new profile fixes the zeroes issue in the Privacy and Security settings menu. But it seems impossible to remove my original profile and use the new one instead.

Thanks. Also, I didn't notice it at first since I don't use online account/Sync but it appears that Sync is completely broken on my profile and on fresh installation as well.By default after fresh install my profile is named "Work" for some reason, also has PC name and Windows username below it but no Sign-in button and Sync itself is greyed out and says "Sync isn’t available for this account". Creating new profile enables Sync for that profile, and it also doesn't have PCname/username below the profile name if that's relevant. I attached screenshot examples from the 79.0.309.0 Canary running on Windows Sandbox (hence weird PC/username) but everything is identical on the current Dev build.
