The -profile command line switch is not passed to the windows 7 jumplist properly.

I start Firefox with a shortcut like this one: "C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe -no-remote -profile SomeProfileButNotTheDefaultOne -win7appid SomeUniqueAppId".

When pinning to the Windows 7 taskbar, the jumplist items "New Tab" and "New Window" ignore the given command line parameter -profile and open a new tab or window with the default profile instead of the given one.

The program itself handles the parameters correctly; alas, the jumplist entries do not. Is there any way to convince the jumplist to use the given command line parameters as well?

Try using a capital P, as in -Profile.Or use just -P

As I said: "The program itself handles the parameters correctly." -profile (lowercase) itself works fine. Apperently the jumplist ignores any command line parameter but starts a new process with the "-browser" parameter.
