Nope. I _uninstalled_ SM1 once; profile was (and is) still present in

I see a little too much difference of opinion on ways and means,
hereabouts, for total comfort. I'm thinking it wouldn't hurt a bit for
"the developers" to establish some official, specific guidelines for
manual profile transplants on the SM pages ...
There is, but that doesn't help if you don't read them:

I read that. Nothing there worked in my case.
This link is also mentioned in the Release Notes under the known issues:

The fact that your profile is not at the standard location results in
not being imported automatically I guess. So just perform the necessary
steps to migrate and you're done.

The profile was in the default location. It's the program files that
were and are in a nonstandard location, on another partition. Yes, I
adjusted the command line to point to the actual location.
cmcadams, could you please humour me and
1- Re-install your old SM in its old, non-standard, location and let it
find your on SM profile.
2. Next, Un-install your SM 2 (the one that isn't working) and stick its
profile somewhere else, preferably compress it or something.
3. Now re-install SM 2 completely and let it find (import) your SM 1
profile.
4. If all the above has gone well, un-install SM 1.
Report back.
Daniel
Sorry. I blew most of a weekend on this, at the start, and there are too many
emails/bookmarks under the bridge for me to risk going back and losing either. My
setup (such as it is) remains stable, and I'll stick with it.
