Is there an easy way to run two profiles of firefox simultaneously? As it stands I use FF with a bunch of extensions that limit what it can do (uMatrix, cookie zappers, etc.) and then occasionally when I just want to quickly view something I open it in chromium (and I also use it for youtube). But if they're going to cripple ad blockers (among other things) I'd rather just do it all in firefox

Start one of them with firefox.exe -p profile_name -no-remote I do this to run the beta and the stable version at the same time.

- approxim8ion 5y agoCreate a shortcut to firefox using the command firefox -P whenever you launch it you'll be presented with a dialog to pick a profile or create a new one.
- guilhas 5y agoYou can run: firefox -no-remote -profile ./ff It will create the folder and a new Firefox profile there Optionally you can download Firefox portable
- unionpivo 5y agoBest solution i found is to have normal firefox + Firefox Developer Edition They use separated profiles (you could sync them to same if you wanted) https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/developer/ https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/developer/
