I have a second firefox profile and pinned it to the taskbar with the commandline argument -p profilename and gave it a different icon. Now, when i open that profile, it basically shows up under the default icon. Is this inevitable or am i doing something wrong? ---

This has been discussed several times on Discuss. A quick search could help. But separate taskbar icons shouldn’t be a prob. All are Firefox windows. ![ksnip_20251112-152500](https://discuss-cdn.kde.org/uploads/default/original/3X/e/f/ef0aae2cd6832f0e310e278c663fd8a9753bf804.jpeg) ---

several times or one time > [@Confusing task manager icons](https://discuss.kde.org/t/confusing-task-manager-icons/20116): > > Today I noticed that it is no more possible to have two different task manager icons for two different Firefox sessions (opened with two different profiles). I have just one task manager icon. And this is very confusing. Because I choose a different icon for the second profile (called as different app in menu) exactly to know which Firefox profile I have opened. My system: Operating System: KDE neon 6.0 KDE Plasma Version: 6.1.3 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.4.0 Qt Version: 6.7.2 Kernel Versio… the solution was to use a different fork… Great it works for you. You did all that but couldnt be bothered to explain how you did it? ---

Several. If this is the topic you’re referring to [https://discuss.kde.org/t/confusing-task-manager-icons/20116/8](https://discuss.kde.org/t/confusing-task-manager-icons/20116/8) then it’s explained. On a sidenote, I still think ssb’s are the easiest solution. Regardless the browser. These are two Brave windows. ![Screenshot_20251112_175823](https://discuss-cdn.kde.org/uploads/default/original/3X/6/e/6e9bf0086b8baf0c6d175d9a99854da6107287a9.jpeg) ---

Okay. It doesn’t work then. Can’t help you. ![Screenshot_20251113_154634](https://discuss-cdn.kde.org/uploads/default/original/3X/a/9/a9e6ad7b212a4c872b80421e14686e2cb680c4de.jpeg)
