Tell Listary to use one specific Chrome profile

Hello to all Listary users! :grin:
I am very happy of this software. I tried many but Listary is my favorite.

Here’s my question:
On my machine I have several Chrome profiles. I wish that for all the Web shortcuts it uses just my main profile. Currently it seems that it start just the last opened Chrome window.
Is it possibile? Maybe I’m missing something.

Thanks in advance!

This isn’t hard to do, but you have to do it with a shortcut (may be able to do with command line, but I know this way works).

Make a shortcut to Chrome (or copy the one in your start menu to the desktop (or anywhere you can find it easily). Open the shortcut’s properties. In the “Target:” field, key/scroll/clock to the end of the path, hit the space bar, then add --profile-directory="Guest Profile" replacing Guest Profile with the name of the directory in which the desired user’s data is stored (double quoted).

Note: this may be different from the profile’s name, check this path first (substitute your windows username for ):
``C:\Users<username>\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data`

Once you have made this shortcut, simply have Listary target it instead of chrome.exe.

Hope this helped…someone. :grin:
