How do you delete a profile using commandline
How do I use commandline to remove a profile. I know how to do it via the profile manager but need to automate it via commandline
Chosen solution
You can only create a profile using the command line, you can't remove a profile including files. Since removing a profile involves updating profiles.ini and possibly removing files in two locations (AppData\Roaming and AppData\Local) you will likely have to use the Profile Manager to remove a profile easily and properly. You can either use the Profile Manager or use the about:profiles page to manage profiles.

I found removing the files worked fine and recreating it with -CreateProfile option worked
