# ProfileSwitcher *[obsolete]*

## From recent news I heard from a friend, this behavior has been implemented into the native settings of Opera GX. Please use that instead of this workaround. ⚠



**ProfileSwitcher** is a utility for the browser **Opera GX** that allows you to change between the profiles you want links to automatically open, as in when you click on a link, it opens **Opera GX** as the profile you choose.

> This utilizes the registry in order to change the **one (1)** registry key responsible for opening Opera GX and simple file reading to create a list and obtain the data and state of your created profiles.

>

# Download
