Multiple users

Hi there, I noticed that the flag opera://flags/#side-profiles is still there but it seems it does nothing. I didn't find any way to have multiple profiles. It seems even having a different launcher doesn't work with opera one. Any idea?

@leocg Yes, the new launch string is:
"C:\Users\Paul Vern\AppData\Local\Programs\Opera\opera.exe" --user-data-dir=C:\Users\Paul Vern\Downloads\Opera Profiles\profile 1"I've tried also
"C:\Users\Paul Vern\AppData\Local\Programs\Opera\launcher.exe" --user-data-dir=C:\Users\Paul Vern\Downloads\Opera Profiles\profile 1"Both of them don't work with a message saying that the privileges are not enough to access the profile. I've tried also launching it as administrator but it seems that's not the problem.

Hi, I am new to Opera and I am just a second away from switching from Chrome to Opera One. Unfortunately I really need the feature for multiple user profiles with cloud sync, one for work and one for personal. Do you know if there are any plans on the roadmap for an official implementation?

@dergolo Note that you can have multiple profiles now this way. And, you can use a separate Opera account in each to have 2 separate Sync accounts.

@burnout426 Thanks for the reference to the reddit post. I have read this before and will give it a try. The "manual configuration" is why I was wondering about an official implementation. I love how Chrome does it, asking which profile to use at startup and opening new browsers from external links in the last used profile.
Since @leocg stated this feature flagged, I will stay tuned
