Firefox startup parameters

The Firefox Knowledgebase talks about the command line parameters. Also there is additional information at the developer website.

Some of the ones I uses most often:

  • -ProfileManager - starts the Firefox Profile Manager
  • -P "Profile Name" - starts Firefox using the specified profile.
  • -safe-mode - starts Firefox in "Safe Mode" useful when extensions go awry.
  • -no-remote - permits multiple instances of Firefox using separate profiles.
