How do you change which profile is the default?

I'd like to set a particular profile as my default profile for opening hyperlinks from other applications. Is there a way to specify which profile new Edge Dev windows open with?

In Edge 81 onward, you can do this natively in the browser. Check out this discussion - https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/discussions/select-a-default-profile-to-open-external-links-in/m-p/1174768

with your profile active, if you pin that occurrence of edge to the task bar, every time you open edge via the task bar you will be in your preferred profile.
