OK, so you have ProPhoto available as the output profile. I’m sorry, but I thought the problem was you wanted to have that, and it did not work. It seems to work now. Could you please describe, in detail, what your problem is?
The two locations are:
The first is your user directory. Any user, without administrator privileges, can place profiles in their own custom folder. Also, this data (any data under C:\users\your-user\appdata\local\darktable
) survives when you reinstall darktable (which is also the reason why people try to solve problems in vain by reinstalling the software).
The 2nd is the installation directory, and stores the data that is part of the darktable distribution. Modifying it requires administrative privileges; data placed there probably won’t survive a reinstallation. (I say ‘probably’, as I’m not really familiar with the Windows installer.) One should not modify, add, delete files there.
