Hi carman, In the target box of the shortcut, enter:

"C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" -profile "%AppData%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\MYPROFILE" https://www.ghacks.net/

where: MYPROFILE is the name of your defined Profile and, of course, the website is of your choice.

Be sure to use the quotation marks and spaces as they are written into the sample line.

Well said.

I wish to run a http site from an icon on my desktop, using a defined profile of firefox, but I don't know the format of the script to put into the properties box of the icon. It just seems to default to a standard Firefox, not my profile of Firefox. Thanks

Thanks Fred. I have now found that the line:

"C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" -P MYPROFILE https://www.xxxx.co.uk

seems to work alright.
