Is there a way to quickly switch between Zotero 5 profile folders?

edited December 18, 2017
I would like to split the library in multiple profile folders so that the PDF storage, SQLite database and the translators are completely independent. For simplicity, assume I do some freelancing and I'd like to keep each project as a separate Zotero library.

There is a single instance of Zotero 5 standalone on a Windows 10 machine. Is there a way to quickly switch between profiles, or work with more that 1 profile at a time without digging up the folder location in the preferences and restart the program?

The only solution I can think of so far is to keep several portable Zotero 5 program folders (https://github.com/pedrom34/ZoteroPortable/) and call each executable to access library X. Is there a better way of handling this?
