Is there a way to specify version to use in command line?
I have a website that is most compatible with a specific version of Firefox and I want to always open it in it's own instance with that version but I want all other shortcuts to open in the newest version. I have tried -new-instance but if either of them is open before the other it automatically opens as the version that was already open.
Ex. 1
1. Use old version shortcut with -new-instance and it opens the old version
2. Use new version shortcut with -new-instance and it opens in a new instance with old version

You can install as many versions of Firefox that you want. However;
Switch to manual and place each version in its own folder.
The Last Firefox you install will be labeled as the default program.

They are already installed in separate locations.
This is the batch file I use (one line); C:\PROGRA~2\MOZILL~4\firefox.exe -P FirefoxESR -no-remote -new-instance -new-window http://comicskingdom.com/conceptis-kakuro/today
Usage: C:\PROGRA~1\MOZILL~1\firefox.exe [ options ... ] [URL]
where options include:
-h or -help Print this message. -v or -version Print Firefox version. -P <profile> Start with <profile>. -migration Start with migration wizard. -ProfileManager Start with ProfileManager. -no-remote Do not accept or send remote commands; implies -new-instance. -new-instance Open new instance, not a new window in running instance. -UILocale <locale> Start with <locale> resources as UI Locale. -safe-mode Disables extensions and themes for this session. -console Start Firefox with a debugging console. -jsconsole Open the Error console. -browser Open a browser window. -new-window <url> Open <url> in a new window. -new-tab <url> Open <url> in a new tab. -preferences Open Options dialog. -search <term> Search <term> with your default search engine. -setDefaultBrowser Set this app as the default browser.
