Yes, that's what I meant. (example from an old desktop icon):  
"G:\Program Files\TBB 2.2.35-3\Tor Browser\Start Tor Browser.exe" -no-remote
I think we're talking about same thing.  Unless you change the TBB 
profile location, each extracted version (or different instances of same 
version) uses the profile in that instance's program folder, unless you 
specify another - as you indicated.  If using the default profile in 
default location, don't have to specify the profile name (I'm sure most 
know that - just clarifying).
