Need guidance on using Cisco Secure Profile Editor

Below I've included an image of what I'm currently running.

I've been tasked to edit our Cisco Secure - AnyConnect VPN module to pre-populate the preferred URL for our users once the software is installed. And based on what I've read so far this could be accomplished by leveraging the Cisco Secure Profile Editor, however I've never used this product before. Can someone please point me in the right direction to a helpful article or video for me to review so I can accomplish this task? Thank you in advance for your assistance.

@esteban2020 you need to use the Secure Client VPN Profile Editor

Open the VPN Profile Editor and choose Server List from the navigation pane, click Add, configure a Display Name (this is the name displayed in the VPN client) and then configure your server FQDN (or IP address) of the ASA/FTD. Save the XML profile and either upload to the ASA/FTD or distribute and install on the local computer(s).

@Rob Ingram, will I need to open the original XML file in my C:Drive? Or am I creating a brand new XML file? 

@esteban2020 either will work. If you just create an additional XML profile and store it in the corect location, the server will appear as an option of the list of VPN connections to choose from.

@Rob Ingram, I believe I figured it out. I was able to edit the original XML file from my C:Drive. Now I can take what I have and upload the new configuration to our ASA/FTD after we do a few tests with the Helpdesk. Thank you your guidance.
