    I managed to stop getting
    "Unknown managed type referenced: [UnityEditor.CoreModule] UnityEditorInternal.Profiling.CPUProfilerModule" on "2019.4.12f1"
    by loading a window Layout.

    Maybe Unity tried to open a window, that did not exist in this version.

    2019.4.12f1 The same happened to me. but when you create a new project. I created a new project in another folder. and the error did not go away. fast and easy. I delete the project with the error.
    (en español) me paso lo mismo. pero cuando cree un proyecto nuevo en otra carpeta, el error desaparecio, Asi que despues borre el proyecto con el error. y acomode el nuevo en la carpeta correspondiente.

    It appears to be caused by something in the layout that we carry into new projects from old ones.

    This will wipe that out, but it fixes the error for me:
    Close Unity.
    Find the file named CurrentLayout-default.dwlt (probably in the "Library" folder)
    Delete the file named CurrentLayout-default.dwlt
    Restart Unity.
