Groupy does not work with Comet.

from Stardock Forums

Hello, I have now switched from the Chrome browser to the Comet browser from Perplexity. Unfortunately, the groups I created no longer open correctly. I have a group with 4 Comet instances. For each Comet browser, I selected a specific website that should open on startup, and then saved the group that way. When I start this group now, 4 Comet instances do launch, but the assigned URLs do not open. This always worked perfectly with Chrome.
Has anyone already found a solution to this problem?
Best regards, Andreas Paulsen

We can only support browsers which offer a way to expose what sites are open in them.

Comet is not one we have any support for and I don't know if it has any way to expose the details or not, we would have to look.  It depends on if it is based on Chromium or not.

For example, Chromium browsers will populate the command line in a groupy file

CommandLine= --profile-directory=Default --new-window https://www.espn.com

I tested it, it does work if you add the page to the command line
