Firefox shortcut with VPN option on

Hello, sorry for my English. I would like sometimes to launch Firefox behind VPN. I can indeed do it by using options manually, it works perfectly. All along my search, I have found that a private mode launcher can be made ("C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" -private-window). Is there any similar instruction, but for a Firefox manual VPN option activate ? Thank you for your attention.

You can re-ask your question at the below link. But off the top of my head, VPN is a all or nothing feature. So if you want to occassionally/temporarly turn off VPN for a special reason, then i think you would have to turn off VPN completely.

But I could be wrong :-)

Ask at here:

Thank you very much. I'm not sure I'll try to re-ask by following the link. It seems dedicated to "Mozilla VPN Support Forum" only, not the VPN I use. Although I think you're right about the "all or nothing feature". Perhaps an additional portable Firefox (with the right option on) could do the job.
