Click on the profile picture in the upper right corner of the browser, go to 'Other Profiles' and choose the user for which you wish create a direct 'Google Chrome desktop shortcuts' for.

Open Chrome from a non-user specific chrome link (like, from the desktop or taskbar) or create a new shortcut of Google Chrome.

The other (with profile pic) went to that specific user in the picture but was created by default when I created a shortcut and any attempt while in a different user to create a new shortcut for that specific user didn't work 1 that was the standard Chrome icon, one which had 1 of my user account profile picture attached to it.Ĭlicking on the one without a profile picture opened a new window with a choice to pick a user.

My current situation is that I had 2 Google Chrome icons in my Windows taskbar. Why don't they just add a 'Create Desktop shortcut for this Profile' popup-menu when one right-clicks the profile icon in the top right? How do Googlers do it? Or have they stopped having the need for it and thus thought nobody else will need it?Īs of version. In order to fix that, edit the shortcut and remove the entire '-app-id=.' substring, the important thing is to keep the '-profile=.' substring. Now you have two shortcuts which will open the Browser with the corresponding profile.īut this will mess with the 'open these webpages on startup' because it will additionally open the preconfigured website. Press the three-dot-menu and in 'More Tools.' select 'Create Shortcut' (sorry, my Chrome is in German, but I guess that's what it would be in English). This cannot be an empty tab, it has to be an URL. Open the page what will be your startpage. The following is a stupid workaround which works in Chrome 81.x on Windows.

One note when you enter the Profile number ensure there is a space and is inside of quotes, as Profile 1 and NOT Profile1 this code below does not need much editing desktop file add your specific data to the All CAPS that are in the code below save with a new name for each of your profiles, I expect this works with many Debian and Ubuntu distros. Just put Chrome on desktop via Application Launcher then open with Kate to edit the file and save it as. Of course need to keep track of the accounts, first will always be 'Default' all other logged in accounts will be Profile 1, Profile 2 and so on. This only works AFTER you create or login in to each of the Google accounts, using Chrome to add other people, click on Icon upper left, left of the 3 vertical dots or hamburger, says other people +Add. This is for Linux, this came specifically from my Debian 10, and works flawlessly.
