Batch Export of .fff Profiles

I am currently updating my company's archive of over 100 .fff profiles. Would it be possible to modify the export profile dialogue to allow you to click and drag to select multiple profiles to export or add an option to export all profiles that simplify has at once?

There's a few threads on the forum already explaining how to do this. Here's one that might be helpful:

I searched the forums before and saw that post as well. My issue is that those profiles are not useful when you want to actually know what you are importing. I understand that they are the same file with a different extension and name, but this is not useful.

What I am asking for is the ability to export all profiles from within the existing export dialogue in simplify so that I can know what each profile is without opening them in notepad++.

Much more useful

If you import those XML profiles into S3D on the other computer, they will all be listed in the profile database with their exact name, so you will know exactly which ones were imported and can easily select them based on the name.

Again, the fact that those files are not named coherently in file explorer is the issue. I know I can just grab those files and import, but it is not practical to pull several files, say ABS 0.6mm, 1.0mm, 1.2mm, 2mm, and 3mm, for a customer or check to see what processes I have backed up on a company server. I'm asking for an improvement in the process export dialogue, that is why I posted in feature requests.
