Opening brave with new user data directory default settings

We are providing our employees a system to open the browser with a new user data and profile directory and then open it with a predefined set of URLs, we are doing this programmatically with the C# Process object - where process file is the brave exe and URLs flags --profile and–user-data-dir (e.g. file:C:\Users\xxxx\AppData\Local\BraveSoftware\Brave-Browser\Application\brave.exe arguments:"https://facebook.com https://www.google.com/ --profile-directory=emp1 --user-data-dir=“C:\Users\xxxx\SessionStorage\emp1”)
but because the default on startup is ‘continue where you left off’, every time they open the browser (after the first) those tabs will be duplicated.
once from the ‘continue where you left off’ option and once from my url set command.

I would like either a flag to open brave with a specific on startup method, or a way to change the default settings for future users.

Steps to Reproduce (add as many as necessary): 1. 2. 3.
(see e.g. in description)
**Actual Result **

Reproduces how often:
Every time until changing the on startup setting for each user.

Operating System and Brave Version(See the About Brave page in the main menu):
OS: Win10
Brave: Version 0.66.99 Chromium: 75.0.3770.100 (Official Build) (64-bit)

Thanks in advance!

@OwenMc,
If you go to Menu --> Settings --> On Startup you should see an option to Open to a specific set of pages:


Use this option to launch Brave and open the desired sites on launch.
