- Vurdert til 3 ut av 5av Firefox-bruker 18234082, ett år sidenIt was great while it worked. Now it no longer switches profiles. I will uninstall. The workaround I use now is to add the -p option to firefox.exe in the shortcut. That way every time I wish to switch profiles, I just open the Firefox icon on my desktop and it will ask which profile I want to use.
- Vurdert til 5 ut av 5av Scarlet, ett år sidenCurrently down, but olivrrstray in the reviews has a fix for windows that was easy to follow, and when working properly it's fantastic, very easy to use and i love having multiple profiles available
- Vurdert til 4 ut av 5av Lauren, ett år sidenThis is a fantastic add-on that really helps me use Firefox in the multiple ways I need to without having to log in and sync multiple Mozilla profiles, however, it's currently malfunctioning (23-Mar-2024). Thanks to olivrrstray's review I was able to get back in and I concur with JavitoPlay, the dev is most likely working to update it.
- Vurdert til 4 ut av 5av JavitoPlay, ett år sidenNow its broken the "click" on the profiles, but you can go to edit profiles, and "set as default" to open the profiles you had keep.
I suppose the developer is working to fix it
In general, this extension its great. - Vurdert til 4 ut av 5av olivrrstray, ett år sidenBroken with the March 19th update, 124.0.
Edit:
For the more tech savvy, there is a workaround on Issues tab on the Github page.
For the less tech savvy who have Windows:
1. Hit Windows + R.
2. Put "%APPDATA%\nulldev\FirefoxProfileSwitcher\config\" in the prompt, and hit "ok." This will open the folder with configuration files.
3. Copy the path; this is the address in the top bar. It should look similar to this:
C:\Users\[yourusername]\AppData\Roaming\nulldev\FirefoxProfileSwitcher\config
4. Open the notepad app, create a new file. Paste the following text in the notepad:
{"browser_binary": "C:\\Program Files\\Mozilla Firefox\\firefox.exe"}
5. Open the File menu, click Save As.
6. In the address bar, paste the address you saw before, and change "Save as type" from Text documents to all files. You should see files like "avatar.json"
7. Save the file as: config.json

- Vurdert til 4 ut av 5av Firefox-bruker 18334926, ett år sidenIt worked fine until Firefox version 124. Now it doesn't react on when I want to switch profile.

For those with FF 124.0 that broke this plugin. Here's how to fix this temporarily:
1. Hit Windows + R.
2. Put "%APPDATA%\nulldev\FirefoxProfileSwitcher\config\" inside the prompt, and hit "ok." This will open the configuration folder. The address should look like this:
C:\Users\[yourusername]\AppData\Roaming\nulldev\FirefoxProfileSwitcher\config
You should see avatar.json and profile-options.json
3. Right click anywhere inside the "config" folder, and create new text document. Name it "config.json".
4. Open config.json (with notepad) and paste the following text into config.json:
{"browser_binary": "C:\\Program Files\\Mozilla Firefox\\firefox.exe"}
5. Save.
6. Reopen FF.

It would be nice if this extension allowed users to upload their own profile picture and/or offered the option of using each Firefox account's avatar as the profile picture.
