Set a anki profile as default?

Hello dear community

I have several Anki profiles. I use one of them most often, can I somehow set it to start automatically by default and then I have to make a switch manually if I want to open another profile?

You could probably create a shell script and run the script instead. E.g. in linux the following opens anki with a profile (-p) called default:

anki -p default

If you want to switch, you can switch just like you’d normally do via ankis shortcuts or the menubar.

Anki will open by default to to the last profile you used. But you can use a startup command like that to either open a specific profile, or open to the profile switcher. In Windows, you can do it my modifying the shortcut – Managing Files - Anki Manual.

[But just for you to think about: Profiles - Anki Manual – do you really need several profiles? There aren’t many situations where that’s the best solution, and it’s especially prone to data loss due to mis-syncing.]
