Computer 1 crashed. I restored all files to computer 2 from the cloud back up service I use. The restored files were placed on my desktop in a folder labeled C. I believe I know the profile I used from computer 1 and I want to make it the profile to use on computer 2? I've included a screenshot of what I found in the folder labeled C that was restored from computer 1.

[Profile0] Name=default IsRelative=1 Path=Profiles/0uqxrj5h.default Default=1

[Profile1] Name=default0 IsRelative=1 Path=Profiles/429rebdl.default
