Just checked on that: my profiles.ini has 644. Something odd happened as 
well: there was a 2nd .default created having 600, which was added to 
profile.ini. Now I manually changed the profile.ini to the oldest 
. default, and changed some prefs and added bookmarks. Now it seems to 
work. Not a clue though what was different and why.
