Normally, if you want to run more than one I think he means start-tor-browser (shell script on my box, probably a batch file on Windows). If you were using this in a script, I suppose the use of -no-remote would be the same as described. I got it to work reliably under similar circumstances this way: ./App/Firefox/firefox -no-remote -profile ./Data/profile In circumstances where multiple Firefox profiles are in use, specifying the particular profile used with TBB seems to work more reliably. Yes, that's what I meant. (example from an old desktop icon): G:\Program Files\TBB 2.2.35-3\Tor Browser\Start Tor Browser.exe -no-remote I think we're talking about same thing. Unless you change the TBB profile location, each extracted version (or different instances of same version) uses the profile in that instance's program folder, unless you specify another - as you indicated. If using the default profile in default location, don't have to specify the profile name (I'm sure most know that - just clarifying). ___ tor-talk mailing list tor-talk@lists.torproject.org https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-talk

Quick (possibly slightly stupid) question - the -no-remote option, do I add that to the start-tor-browser script? And if so, where? Don't know about a script. Normally, if you want to run more than one version of Firefox (or maybe Aurora), you add the - no-remote command after the Target box string (command path), that is found by R clicking the start icon Properties. As an example, for Firefox icon, you'd see something like: D:\ProgramFiles (x86)\Mozilla\Firefox 9\firefox.exe This is the path where the executable file is installed (or in Aurora's case, extracted [not installed] ). NOTE: the quote marks are necessary. So adding the -no-remote command would result in something like: D:\ProgramFiles (x86)\Mozilla\Firefox 9\firefox.exe -no-remote note: in the example above, there is a space after ...firefox.exe and the -no-remote command. Type it just as shown (substituting the path where the 2nd instance (version) of AURORA you want to run is located). IOW, put a space between the quote mark after firefox (aurora) and the 1st hyphen, in front of -no-remote If you were using this in a script, I suppose the use of -no-remote would be the same as described. ___ tor-talk mailing list tor-talk@lists.torproject.org https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-talk
