PS V2.8.0 Can't seem to add my custom profile for Flashforge Creator Pro IDEX machine

I have been using a custom profile in PS for my Flashforge Creator Pro IDEX machine for several years now.  I now have a new PC and I'm trying to get the new setup to recognize my custom Flashforge Creator Pro IDEX machine profile, without much success.  

On my old PC, all I had to do was use the existing BIBO dual-extruder .INI file as a template and change all occurrences of 'BIBO'-ish to 'Creator Pro2' and then place that file in the c:\users\frank\appdata\roaming\PrusaSlicer\vendor folder.  That no longer seems to be the case with 2.8.0.  I have looked through all the documentation on the GitHub site, and I'm more confused now than before I read through it- doesn't seem to make a whole lot of sense.

Anyone else had any luck getting Prusa to recognize a custom profile?

TIA,

Frank

RE:

I've attached a screenshot showing what PS 2.8.0 looks like on my old PC, with 'Flashforge.ini' in the C:\users\Frank\AppData\PrusaSlicer\vendor folder

 
And my FlashForge.INI file (changed to Flashforge_INI.TXT to get by filters)

Hej,

 

I had the same issue. Simply add the FlashForge.idx file to the vendor path:

C:\Users\<yourusername>\AppData\Roaming\PrusaSlicer\vendor

Restart the program and run the Configuration Wizard again.
