printer configuration drop down box, now only shows default. Doesn't show previous printer settings.

Under slicer tab, slice with cura, when click on drop down box to get my previous, different printer configurations, I now only get default. How do I get my old settings back? I don't know why I have lost my previous settings. thanks for any help! Alan

Check in working directory if the CuraEngine folder (might be named a bit differently) is present and contains other configs. That is where all profiles for cura are stored and what you should see in host.

C:\Users\Administrator\AppData\Local\RepetierHost\CuraEngine. Is this the directory you are referring too? (sorry, I'm a little computer illiterate) It does have a couple of them listed. Thought i had a couple more, but maybe not. So how do i get these back into the drop down box?

Update. the settings that i found above, are for two different printers. (After adding the second printer is when i lost my printer settings). But have been unable to find the settings in Cura that i had for AbS, PTEG, etc. Any other suggestions? Thanks again.

New printers get their own settings. You can copy files from one printer to other and restart host, then you should see the copied files. First folder level in CuraEngine is printer and then filament/print containing the config files.
