launching browser - Profiles + Extensions
So my workplace blocked streaming radio, I've found a way around it by using RDM and creating a SSH tunnel to home and this works, however I would like it to use a specific edge profile when launching so I get all my ad blocking extensions and such, is there a way to do it? If I set the browser to go external it doesn't recognize the SSH tunnel, if I use undocked or tabbed with options like below
or
it also doesn't work, it's like it's a very stripped-down version of the browser.
Ideally the profile option would allow you to select any profile or have an option to prompt what profile to use.

Hello,
Thank you for reaching out to us regarding this,
In Remote Desktop Manager, the Website entry in Embedded/Tabbed/Undocked mode uses RDM’s embedded Edge integration. That embedded mode does not use your regular Microsoft Edge profiles and extensions, which is why it looks like a stripped-down browser. The “Profile name” option in the Website entry only creates an RDM-specific profile container for that embedded session (cookies/storage isolation) and does not map to Microsoft Edge profiles.

I'm afraid that, currently, it's not possible to have extensions in the embedded browser.
Let me know if you have further questions regarding this topic,
Best regards,

Understood but it would be good to have it as an available session type like you've done for other things like FTP as an example.
