Multiple Installations of Prusa Slicer

Somehow I did not really pay attention during installing a new Prusa Slicer version and so I got a parallel installation:

Now I want to get rid of Prusa Slicer 2.5.1 on my machine.

I'm afraid, I could loose my individual profiles during that process. Where are those profiles stored and how do I backup/restore them in case I have to uninstall both versions of Prusa Slicer?

Btw. deployment software not recognizing where a former version has been installed is crap in my opinion.

RE: Multiple Installations of Prusa Slicer

In PS under Help there is a option to chow you the configuration folder.  That will tell you where they are stored.

To back up any non system profiles you use File>Export>Config Bundle (or config bundle with physical printers).  That creates an ini file that can be imported later on yours or another machine to restore custom profiles.  Its a good way to save stuff offline or move profiles from machine to machine.

It does NOT save any system profiles so you would normally run the wizard again to get any of those back or copy back the entire profile directory if you made a copy earlier.
