So here's how I work,,,,,a way where I have NEVER lost a profile...ever! Lesson One First, lets get a few definitions sorted..... The ...

Load up your saved factory file that has your developed profile within it. Note I said "within it".....I'll come back to this in a sec!

File dropdown....Save Factory File.
