You should say, first create a desktop shortcut by right clicking on the desktop, and select new shortcut. Then, in the dialogue box that comes up, select browse, and scroll to the firefox icon. Then select the Firefox icon. After the pathway in placed in the target box, add after it: -P xyzname -no remote Then close, and your in business. Otherwise, this was a real help at getting a DESKTOP shortcut, and not just having to open the profile manager every time. Thanks! Option 2, step was a little confusing.
