Hi,
Seeing that my Firefox was bloated with a large number of tabs, I created a new FF profile and started fresh, with just a few tabs.
Fine.
But there is a nuisance: I can not click on links in email (Thunderbird and others): they insist in opening the full "Default" FF profile with a ton of windows and tabs, instead of opening a new tab in the already running FF instance.
How can I change that?
XFCE, Leap 15.0
AFAIK, you can only change which profile is the default one. <https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/profile-manager-create-remove-switch-firefox-profiles>
Well, that's acceptable. [...] Nope, does not work. When I click on a link now I get a message that FF is already open, but not responding. I suspect I have to also rename it as default. [...] No, got it working. If I start FF from the CLI: firefox -P Small --no-remote & It does not work. If I start it from the desktop start menu (firefox %u), it does. Well, it is good, thanks :-) -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 15.0 x86_64 at Telcontar)
