Describe the bug

I am using Modrinth and ATLauncher to manage my mods. And i've merged the modrinth and atlauncher instance/profile folders. there's just the problem of: when a new profile is created in the folder, or moved. Modrinth does not autodetect the new profile. The only way to make it work properly is to make a dummy profile in ATLauncher, make the main profile in modrinth, then move the dummy profile into the modrinth profile. Even renaming a profile in the modrinth folder breaks the instance.

Steps to reproduce

1 Make an instance in modrinth
2 Click open folder
3 Rename folder

Expected behavior

Modrinth sees the profile and doesn't throw path does not exist io error
