Easiest way to do this would be setting an environment variable. So (in Windows) for every profile you would create a *.bat file with

set UPDATER_PROFILE=<name>
Launch.exe

and maybe create shortcuts to them.

Wouldn't it be simpler to just keep multiple configurations then? with 1 per install directory?
I got no idea where your keeping your current configuration etc, but

If its in a .ini file you could section it w. 1 section per EQ2 installation

If its in the registry, enumerate them w. 1 sub key per installation of EQ2

Then upon launch of the updater, if there is more than 1 installation, present a list for the user to select from or just run on the single installation.

Hell if you wanna be real advanced :P make it so that if you got multiple installations you can select "Update All"
