      Hi,
      I have two chrome accounts (profiles) for personal and business use. How do I set a shortcut to open my file with my other Chrome profile? (Notepad++ opens by default with my personal Chrome browser (even when it is closed and the business profile is open).
      ).

      I know you can set the shortcut in shortcuts.xml like below, but how do I set a different Chrome profile?

      <Command name="Open in Chrome (personal)" Ctrl="yes" Alt="no" Shift="no" Key="82">chrome &quot;$(FULL_CURRENT_PATH)&quot;</Command>
      

      kind regards,
      Harold

        Hi @Harold-Vogelaar

        Did you try to add the argument --profile-directory to your call to chrome? Something like: chrome --profile-directory=&quot;<your_profile_folder>&quot; &quot;$(FULL_CURRENT_PATH)&quot;

        You can find the actual name of your profile folder by opening Chrome and entering chrome://version in the search bar. The end of the string Profile Path is your profile folder (perhaps is something like “Profile 2” because they don’t usually match the actual name of your profile).
