I guess I'm dumb.
I can't see how to load anything other than the default profile.
I have set default and profile 2 paths in preferences.
I use different folders per account.
how to load another profile?

You have to give profile 2 a name before it will show up in the list, and that's it. I'll make sure that's more clear.
I highly recommend using only one folder. Many people believe that multiple folders will increase your performance, but ... what's the point, for example, of an 8mb cache on your hard drive if you're not going to take advantage of it? Most drives have more like 2mb though. Windows also has its own cache. The problem with multiple folders is it actually hurts performance by not allowing your system to utilize its cache systems. To see a performance gain with multiple folders, they would have to be on physically separate drives on separate IDE channels. Some people stick by it anyway though, if it seems to perform better then go ahead, but the majority will see the best performance from a single folder
