Describe the bug
Adding the "/profile" and perhaps "/autolaunch" options to a shortcut to have the program load a profile and launch it without user input seems to do nothing.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Download release 1.1.6.11.
  2. Run installer/executable once to get all dependencies pulled in.
  3. Create shortcut to installer/executable.
  4. Add "/profile" and "/autolaunch" options to Target as per README.
  5. Start program via shortcut.
  6. Program starts normally as if said options were not present.

Expected behavior
As per README, "/profile" should select a profile, and "/autolaunch" should launch it.

Screenshots
If applicable, add screenshots to help explain your problem.

Desktop (please complete the following information):

  • OS: Windows 11 24H2 (Build 26100.1457)

Additional context
It might be "/autolaunch" is actually working but just not doing anything because "/profile" is not working to begin with, but for obvious reasons I can't test that. For reference, I'm also attaching an export of my current config.

Oh, I pulled the version info above from the config and the directory name in my profile, but it seems the actual version number is v1.1.6.10, so there seems to be a mismatch between the executable and the path.

You are running the setup.exe with switches, you need to find the main exe, mine is
C:\Users\jimmy\AppData\Local\Apps\2.0\RYGD7GYZ.Y3R\NXO211D8.QTR\elit...exe_0000000000000000_0001.0001_none_22ebf1efb (No idea why it is named that way!)
Search for "Elite Dangerous Addon Launcher V2.exe" and create the shortcut to that
