It's just that there should be an easy way to "reset" profiles, although the community is used to "delete the KStars settings to start from scratch", which is a simple but terrible option. This also paves the way for backward incompatibilities that suddenly cripple an installation after an update. One easy way to allow profiles to be reset is to prevent them from being overwritten, thus to not copy them to a writable location, just as if they were application icons. </div><div id="BB10_response_div_BBPPID" dir="auto" style="width:100%"><br></div><div id="BB10_response_div_BBPPID" dir="auto" style="width:100%">About my default profile not detecting anything, Robert said it was because of the relatively small size of the stars on the frame.

After all, in my own personal, own and singular (but probably not isolated) case, the default profile detects nothing in the Focus module.
