Firefox is my preferred browser, but, I'm sure most of us have encountered difficulties on certain sites, requiring the use of another browser. Currently, Fedex unusable in Firefox. Won't allow logins, etc. but works in chromium browsers.

But my actual reason for posting here is that I have a problem with Open in Brave Browser.

I used a method to move the Brave profile to a different location off of my my OS partition, using this command in The Brave Browser shortcut

"N:\BRAVE PORTABLE\brave.exe" --user-data-dir="N:\BRAVE PORTABLE\BraveSoftware\Brave-Browser\User Data"

It works configured that way with the shortcut, but the "Open In Brave Browser" addon requires a "path to the executable, which is fine with the path you see in the image, but doesn't work with the modified path used to move the brave profile.

Is there anything I can do to make this work?
