Solved Profile icons not opening properly after update
-
Hi
After i have updated to the latest version of Vivaldi i have an issue with my shortcuts to profiles.
Any time i open the shortcut it is now opening a new Vivaldi Icon.
Any idea how i can get it back to usinging the original icon?
-
@jane-n i finally found out what to do. I had to add the shortcut then add the following to the end of the path --profile-directory="Profile 1" (changing that dependent on which profile being used and then change the icons.
thanks for your help

@Charlesnewel
It's easiest to unpin the current Task Bar shortcuts and pin the new ones.
Sorry for the trouble. -
@jane-n unfortunately this just pins a new vivaldi icon but when i open them it only opens in the main profile.
I need an icon for each of my profiles
If not able to does anyone know how to role back to the previous version.
-
You can open your profiles from the profile menu on the Address Bar and then pin those shortcuts. Does that work?
Also, we strongly discourage downgrading to an older version as it can break your profile(s) and cause issues, if not immediately, then in the future.

@jane-n Unfortuntely i use these profiles as i have to be logged in to multiple 0365 tenants. I can access these from the profile menu but because i dont have any way of changing the icon colour I cant tell which profile i am currently working in. I thinkk if i cannot find a fix i will have to role back.

How did you change the icons last time? Can't you update the new pinned shortcuts the same way?

I don't think I was much help, but thanks for sharing the solution. I'm sure it will be helpful for others as well.
