config.ini about bt HOT 5 CLOSED

Oh one more thing, what is the vdf reference? I updated it to match my user dir location, but not sure if that should be done.

Thanks @maluht. I've added fully portable mode, which is coming in 3.1.7. Subscribe to releases to get notified! ;)

Regarding vdf is stands for "Vendor Data Folder" and it's used internally to detect local data folder relative to "Local App Data". This is not guaranteed to be portable between updates, and best way to customize is to add your browser as custom "File->Add Custom Browser".

Great work, thanks!

Another couple of questions then

• What does subtype mean? When I add edge manually it has the subtype = user, but when I discover it I get subtype = chromium. I can also see that there exist a subtype = incognito.
• When adding a browser manually, there is not an option to have multiple profiles. Is it possible to add this? Else I would rather go with the discover function and then just hack the ini file :)

Best regards

subtype currently indicates how to treat the browser. Command-line is generated dynamically so BT needs to know whether browser is chromium or firefox based which applies to top-level browser definition.

user simply means it's a custom browser and args will be treated as is. It also unlocks argument editor in the UI so you can put whetever you want there.

incognito applies to profile definition and indicates that this is an "in-private"/"incognito" etc. mode, depending on how it's called in the browser - essentially launching no-profile private session. Exception is Brave Browser which has two incognito modes - normal and Tor.

Regarding the second question, I'm not sure it will be easy to add custom browser profiles, as it depends on what that browser is. Profiles are browser implementation specific, so the current answer is probably not, but you can manually edit .ini to add them (remember to back it up as re-discover will rewrite all non-custom browsers).
