i have set up mulitple profiles on my other pc, op system xp pro, but i have tried doing exactly the same thing on this pc with windows 7 and it just wont work.. i get the new profile set up, and i set up a profile manager shortcut on my desktop, but when i try to sort out the shortcut to the new profile it tells me it cant find the target.. when i open the new profile in profile manager it doesnt sit separate on the taskbar and is only another page version of my default profile... firefox exe sits in a really weird address on the comp "C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox" i am tearing my hair out so any help you can give would be truly appreciated...

Using multiple profiles - Firefox - MozillaZine Knowledge Base
use -no-remote on the start when using non-default Firefox and/or profile
http://kb.mozillazine.org/Using_multiple_profiles_-_Firefox

Profile names are case sensitive, you must use -no-remote if not your default browser and/or not your default profile

target:

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" -p Firefox-Three -no-remote

start in:

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox"

Each instance of firefox.exe would be on the Windows Task bar, but make sure that you are not pinning them to the task bar. Right click on each one and if you see "Unpin" then unpin it. You can add them to your quick launch as directed in one of my links -- Quick Launch is pretty much hidden in Windows 7 because they were pushing pinning tabs to the task bar (same kind of lunacy is seen in Firefox changes).

To help you know what you are dealing with in the WTM add the "Command Line": column in the "Processes" tab.

To unstack the commands on your Windows Task bar

see http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/windows-7/win7.htm#taskbar

"Right click on Windows Status bar, choose properties, then Taskbar (tab) of Taskbar appearance: (Windows Vista Help: Taskbar: recommended links)

[x] Lock the taskbar
[_] Auto-hide the taskbar
[x] Keep the taskbar on top,
[_] Group similar taskbar buttons (uncheck because it really interferes with composing a reply)
[x] Show Quick Launch,
[_] Show window previews (thumbnails) "

or Taskbar and Start Menu Properties

Taskbar tab
[x] Lock the taskbar
[_] Auto-hide the taskbar
[x] Use small icons
Taskbar location on screen: {Bottom}
Taskbar buttons: {Never combine}
[_] Use Aero Peek to preview the desktop
Toolbars tab
[x] Quick Launch
