Tip: When you use multiple profiles, there is usually one profile that you use most often. A profile can be designated as the default profile in the Profile Name list. When the list appears, click OK to use the default profile or click an alternate profile in the list. Set a default profile. In the Choose Profile dialog box, in the Profile Name list, click the profile that you want to be the default.
