Install Chrome by whatever guide you'd like to follow.

Here's how I did it in Linux Mint, which is based on Ubuntu: Now simply press super and search for Chrome-YOUR_PROFILE_NAME (value given for Name), you will find the second profile appearing in the search results! desktop file in ~/.local/share/applications/ so that your Application Launcher can locate it easily. #!/usr/bin/env xdg-openĮxec=google-chrome -profile-directory=YOUR_PROFILE_NAME Put this code in any text editor and name it anything. You can identify which profile is currently loaded by opening chrome://version inside Chrome and looking at Profile Path.įollow Filippo's answer but change the Command to: google-chrome -profile-directory=YOUR_PROFILE_NAME The third is Profile\ 2, and so on (You can also give custom names for profiles). YOUR_PROFILE_NAME is normally Default for the first profile you created. Please note that either way you choose, you have to know YOUR_PROFILE_NAME. It also allows you to access the second profile from "Activities" (Ubuntu) without using any commands. Personally I recommend method 2 because you don't need to install anything. It is quite simple to do this in Windows but not the same in Ubuntu.įor Ubuntu, I found two ways.
