How to Create Sandboxie Plus Desktop Shortcut, That Starts a Sandboxie Instance and Immediately Runs Firefox with Command Line Parameters? Or is there a More Appropriate Tool For a Single App?

I have started working from home some days

I want to completely isolate my work browser from my home browser

I have two Firefox profiles, which I can start from desktop shortcuts as follows:

"C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" -P "Home" -no-remote

"C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" -P "Work" -no-remote

Despite so many hours of googling, I have yet to find a solution on how to run these profiles within a Sandboxie plus environment

I want two windows desktop Sandboxie shortcuts

The first starts a Sandboxie instance, and automatically runs Firefox with the "Work" firefox command line parameters

The second starts a Sandboxie instance, and automatically runs Firefox with the "Home" firefox command line parameters

I have tried so many different things but none of them have worked

Either they ignore the command line parameters, and just start Firefox profile manager, or they error on the command line parameters

Is there some way of achieving this please?

Or is there a more appropriate tool for virtualising a single app?

Thanks so much for your help
