		hackuser on Feb 24, 2015 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: Firefox 36.0 released `firefox.exe -p -new-instance` Should open a new instance of Firefox in the profile dialog, where you can create a new profile. I'm not sure about "-new-instance". I've only used -no-remote but the release notes say remote commands have been removed. Some quick research turned up -new-instance as a substitute.

-no-remote is the same as -new-instance except that the instance won't listen to remote commands.
