Firefox profiles – The Smithy

Start the Profile manager
- Firefox.exe -P
- about:profiles (but less configuration available when opening in browser)
Open external links in profile that is active. If no profile is active, open the profile manager
- Edit the profiles.ini (find in Users/%User%/AppDate/Roaming/Mozilla/Firefox)
- 1) The parameter -no-remote should be actually in your default profile target, so add the -no-remote to the target of the shortcut you’re actually using to launch your default Firefox. Remove the -no-remote parameter from the non default profile.
- Check your profiles.ini file as mentioned above. It should contain following lines at the very beginning of the file:
```
[General]
StartWithLastProfile=0

[Profile0]
... file continues...
```
  If it does not contain the first two lines, backup the profiles.ini and add the lines. Or change the StartWithLastProfile value from 1 to 0.
