Describe the feature
I am unable to find the "replace current configuration" button after attempting to import a file from "A2Z productions" YouTube channel as outlined in their video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-pRQKAqDPMg. I have installed both companion v3.4.1 and the beta 3.5.0+.... I have my ATEM Mini Extreme ISO connected to the same network with a LAN line.
How can I upload the companion file, .companionconfig, in order to update my stream deck with those preprogrammed macros?

In 3.5 based on your last screenshot, you are seeing the bug https://github.com/bitfocus/companion/issues/3043 I'm not aware of any reason it wouldn't work in 3.4. My only thought is that the video you linked is rather old, so the naming of buttons and things has changed since it was made. The 'Reset and Import' button is the new name of the 'replace current configuration' button
Thanks for the prompt response!
I have never worked with companion, stream deck, of blackmagic atem, so any advice on how to proceed is appreciated.
I have started the process about a week ago. The ATEM was bought about 2 weeks ago. Everything is new. I had a hard time getting my atem to be recognized by companion, until I hard wired it to the network. This is frustrating.
I have uninstalled both versions of companion. My stream deck is plugged in via USB, however the application remains off. There is a comment somewhere that this would not work if the stream deck application is on.
What do you recommend I do?

Importing configs into the 3.5 betas is known to be broken currently, so that not working is expected. But it should work in 3.4.1, so try again with that, and remember that the linked video is 3 years old, so the ui doesn't match perfectly to that video. If it doesn't work, then we will need a copy of the file so that we can fix the import. It doesn't need to be shared publicly.
Any word on when this might be addressed in the 3.5.0 betas, as once you attempt an import, you lose everything other than page 1? Many thanks
