  1. Update `pip`:
 
         pip install -U pip
 
  2. Install microdrop (find latest version number on [PyPi][3], e.g.,
-    `"microdrop>=2.0.post14.dev250849665"`):
+    `"2.0.post110.dev156674653"`):
 
-        pip install --find-links http://192.99.4.95/wheels --trusted-host 192.99.4.95 "microdrop>=2.0,<3.0"
+        pip install --find-links http://192.99.4.95/wheels --trusted-host 192.99.4.95 <microdrop version> microdrop-launcher dmf-device-ui
 
 **Note** *`192.99.4.95` is the IP address of the official MicroDrop update
 server where MicroDrop dependencies not available on PyPI are stored as
 wheels*.

+
+## **Shortcuts** ##
+
+If MicroDrop is installed using a Conda Python distribution (including the [official installer][1])
+
+ - **Documentation**: Open [online MicroDrop documentation][readthedocs].
+ - **GitHub project**: Open MicroDrop [GitHub project page][github].
+ - **MicroDrop Profile Manager**: Launch MicroDrop profile manager.
+ - **MicroDrop environment prompt**: Launch Windows command prompt with
+   MicroDrop Conda environment activated.
+ - **MicroDrop**: Launch MicroDrop if only one **profile** is available
+   *(default)*.  Otherwise, launch **MicroDrop Profile Manager** to select
+   **profile** to launch.
+     * **Tip**: Right-click on shortcut to **pin** to **taskbar** for easy
+       access.
+
+## **Import** profile ##
+
+If existing **profile** directory is not automatically found, it can be
+manually **imported** by launching the **"MicroDrop Profile Manager"**
+shortcut.
+
+See [Profile Manager](#profile-manager-new) section below.
+
+# Profile Manager **(new)** #
+
+In environments where, for example, multiple users are using the same computer
+to perform MicroDrop experiments, it can be helpful to create separate
+MicroDrop **profiles**.  Each MicroDrop **profile** contains **devices** and
+**plugins**, as well as **experiment logs**.
+
+The **MicroDrop Profile Manager** provides an interface to manage one or more
+MicroDrop profiles.  Initially, the **default profile path** (i.e.,
+`<Documents>\Microdrop`) is listed.
 
-# Configuration #
+As shown below:
 
-To create a new MicroDrop settings directory with a batch file launcher, run
-the following command using the Python installation used to install MicroDrop:
+ - Profiles are **listed** according when they were last launched, with the
+   **most recently used profile first**.
+ - Existing profiles may be **imported**.
+ - Listed profiles may be **removed** from the profile list (and optionally
+   **deleted** entirely).
+ - Listed profiles may be **opened** in the system file browser.
+ - MicroDrop may be **launched** using any of the listed profiles.
 
-    python -m microdrop.bin.create_portable_config <microdrop settings directory>
+![MicroDrop Profile Manager][microdrop-profile-manager]
 
-To launch MicroDrop, run:
 
-    <microdrop settings directory>\microdrop.bat
+## Import profile ##
+
+When an existing **profile** is imported, **plugin** dependencies are installed
+while the following dialog is displayed:
+
+![MicroDrop Profile Manager - install dependencies][install-dependencies]
+
+## Remove profile ##
+
+The following **dialog** is displayed when the **Remove** button for a listed
+profile is **clicked**:
+
+![MicroDrop Profile Manager - remove profile][remove-profile]
+
+Clicking the **Remove** button in the dialog removes the corresponding
+**profile** from the list, but **does not** delete any files.  The **profile**
+can be imported to add it back to the profile list.
+
+**Warning:** Clicking the **Remove with data** button in the dialog removes the
+corresponding **profile** from the list, **and deletes the profile directory**.
+This **cannot be undone**.
