You had always had a profile.. Chrome just made it more visible so that you knew about Guest mode and stuff.. Of course deleting your user profile deleted all

  Your condescension is on point, but your reading comprehension could use some work: what I deleted was not my browser profile (which turns out to be undeleteable, and crashy), but my bookmarks that have been stored in my Google account in the cloud for years. Previously the browser-level profile (if indeed it existed) was invisible to me so it never bothered me. Also unclear why a "guest mode" needs to be different than the incognito mode which was already understood by everyone.

In addition, they can't see or modify the computer owner's Chrome profile. * Incognito mode: You don't leave browsing history and cookies on your computer, but you can still see your existing history, bookmarks, passwords, Autofill data, and other Chrome settings.
