This is a bug. I've seen it in my own profile in the past. It's not
Prefs1. It's prefs-1.js (turn on extensions in Explorer), prefs-2.js
etc.

First, make a backup of your profile folder. Then change prefs-3.js to
prefs.js. Check the other files first, the one with the most recent date
should be changed to prefs.js. There should one be one prefs.js file.
