How can I open a new window with a specific profile by a shortcut?

I'm using firefox with two profiles. For starting firefox with the second profile I use this shortcut:

     "firefox.exe" -no-remote -P "profilename2"

If I try to open a new window, while it is already running and I click on that link, it says that firefox is already running and has to be closed for a new window. "-new-window -p "profilename2"" opens a window with the first profile instead.

How can I open a new window by a shortcut for that specific profile?

I think you need to change the command slightly : "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" -P "My Profile" -no-remote

You are using -no-remote before profile name .

that does not change it. It is the same as before (firefox is already running and has to be closed for a new window).

again: i want to start a new window in the second profile, when firefox (with the second profile) is already running

You can't open external links in a Firefox instance that is opened via -no-remote. You would have to drag the link to the tab bar (+) to open the link in an instance started this way.

You will have to omit the -no-remote switch for such an instance and only use it to open an instance where you never want to open an external link in.

thats a huge disadvantage for using different profiles. It also makes no sense to have such a limitation.

a fix for this would be reasonable.
