From 2016 to today (2019-01) this has changed and previous solutions no longer work. I've only found this tedious process that works for me:
- Pin any running Chrome to the task bar (regardless of what profile)
- Open
%AppData%MicrosoftInternet ExplorerQuick LaunchUser PinnedTaskBar
- Open Chrome's properties, extend the target with
--profile-directory="Default"
- Change
"Default"into the corresponding folder name from%userprofile%appdataLocalGoogleChromeUser Data, e.g."Profile 1"
- For more than one pinned Chromes, copy this file and adapt
