== The Profiles ==
And don't forget about making it so Firefox uses multiple Profiles.  IE, a current version and a "Legacy" version of Firefox shouldn't use the same profle.
 
Solution, one profile for the current Firefox and a second profile for the "Legacy" Firefox.  See the below example for the "Target" command line to start each instance of Firefox
 
* Legacy Firefox: "C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox 52.9.0esr 32-bit\firefox.exe" -P "Firefox - 53.9.0esr Legacy" -no-remote
* Current Firefox: "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" -P "Firefox - Current" -no-remote
 
Note: The profile names (after the -P switch) are arbitrary and can be named / titled anything.
