First run after updating Chrome shows a corrupted profile message

Project Member Reported by phistuck@gmail.com, Jun 9 2017 
UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/59.0.3071.86 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Be a very heavy user of Chrome for a few years and have a huge one-gigabyte-or-more profile.
2. Use Chrome.
3. Force a major version update by going to chrome:chrome.
4. Click on "Relaunch" once update is done.

What is the expected behavior?
A working browser without any hiccup.

What went wrong?
A corrupted profile message.

Did this work before? Yes Cannot tell, sorry. A year or so

Chrome version: 59.0.3071.86  Channel: stable
OS Version: 6.1 (Windows 7, Windows Server 2008 R2)
Flash Version:

It just happened again when Chrome updated to version 59.

I did send feedback, but I cannot find the issue on Monorail. Perhaps it opens an internal issue of some sort.

The issue was automatically populated with the following corrupted feature list -
Default/History

When Chrome launched after updating, bookmarks icons reverted back to the default page icon. Restarting Chrome again brought the previous icons back.

It also happened about a year ago (and I believe it has happened a few more times between then and now) -

It is mostly harmless (nothing seems to be lost, but I may just be losing things in which I have no interest, so I do not know they are gone), but annoying.

Relatedly, I think chrome:restart (or maybe "Relaunch" from chrome:chrome) failed on me one time (looks like it tried to run Chrome before the previous instance finished exiting). It failed by only exiting the browser and not launching it again, I mean.

The sentence "Restarting Chrome again brought the previous icons back." suggests to me that the failure was transient to the first launch after upgrade, which sounds like bug 665253.
