Question / Help using shortcut Targetline . Error No dir profile found

Using the october 2015 release of OBS in windows 8.1. on a 64 bit mashine.
Primarily I want to start OBS from any application ex.bat file or python applic ... etc. So I started locking for anyone using such method. I only found your ex. using a shortcut as described on your home page.
As a starter I tried your target line string as given in your ex.. locking like this
"C:\Program Files (x86)\OBS\OBS.exe" -multi -portable -profile "rpi" -scenecollection "desktop" -start
The profile "rpi" and scene "desktop" has previously been defined and can be seen when opening OBS via the normal target-line "C:\Program Files (x86)\OBS\OBS.exe".
Using this string above, I get an error message " can not create the directory profile".
I can understand the message because looking in the OBS structure there is no dir called profile.
Whats wrong with the way I use the target line?
Is there another way of starting up OBS with predefined profile and scene?
I would prefer a ordinary text API with parameters, similar to the target-line ex.
How do I solve this problem?

Why are you passing -portable if you want it to load your existing scenes / sources?
