<![CDATA[How to set default profile for new tabs/windows]]>Not sure if this is opera specific or chromium, but right now when I click a link and it opens in a new tab/window, it defaults to the generic opera profile that's installed by default. I want it to default to a specific profile I've created - is there any way to make this happen?

Why is it that we are allowed to login from a custom account, but are unable to set it as default?

Yes, we can create shortcuts; but also, yes, it's quite bothersome that we open up links on the default profile rather on the one we need and use.
