I have 3 user profiles running on Chrome at all times on separate desktops.

I want to make a command that restores the window (NOT opens a new window) a specific user profile window as It's slow to do so by clicking and holding the chrome icon in the dock. I've tried the following: Opens a new window, not what I want!

/Applications/Google\ Chrome.app/Contents/MacOS/Google\ Chrome --profile-directory="Profile 3"

Maximises the existing Profile 3 window and makes a new tab for duckduckgo.com which is better, but still would like a way to not open a new tab, any way to do this?

/Applications/Google\ Chrome.app/Contents/MacOS/Google\ Chrome duckduckgo.com --profile-directory="Profile 3"

Once I figure this out I'll make 3 different desktop shortcuts as described here How to create dock icon for running terminal command in Mac OS

Create desktop icon for terminal command:

  1. Create a plain text document in TextEdit

#!/bin/bash /Applications/Google\ Chrome.app/Contents/MacOS/Google\ Chrome duckduckgo.com --profile-directory="Profile 3"

  1. Save the file as fileName.command
  2. Open Terminal and navigate to the directory which you saved the file
  3. Type in chmod +x fileName.command and hit enter
  4. Get info on file and drag icon image to icon to change
  5. Rename .command to .app and drag to dock
