Cura 5 crashes when trying to add Prusa Mini

I found the prusa profiles for Cura but it seems to crash the latest version of Cura when importing the printer definition and trying to select the mini under Prusa Research. I know the software version is relatively new but wondering if anyone has experienced this and if there's a fix? Maybe someone can export their working Mini printer config and share it?

I'm using the json file from here:  https://help.prusa3d.com/guide/how-to-import-profiles-to-cura-4-x-windows-macos_17848#17856&_ga=2.147995511.1553972471.1657410984-2085571774.1657410984

Figured it out. Need to ensure that the extruder file as well as the definition and mesh files are in the correct folders.

RE: Cura 5 crashes when trying to add Prusa Mini

There are reports over on the Ultimaker forum that the new Cura 5 (not ready for prime time, IMAO) does indeed crash, on some platforms at least, under various circumstances.

The specific issue I reported on it was that it does not allow the use of the absolute full x-y dimensions of the build plate on the S5.  For me, if I reduced the X dimension of the object by .3mm, it would, but definitely grayed-out the object at full width.  (And yes, I do have one model that needs the full 330mm.)
