Hello. Thank you for reporting. This is very interesting error since 2.6.0-alpha2 should be first version to introduce Anker profiles. Is it possible that you imported some 3rd party profiles (with Anker printer) into previous version of PrusaSlicer?

I see there is another issue opened (#9497) which I guess happens on the same computer and seems to be related to this one. Would you mind sending us your configuration folder zipped? It would help us greatly finding the issue.

If you used the community anker profile in 2.5.0 and imported your config when starting 2.6.0-alpha2, then the community profile is copied over in that process. Adding the anker profile that is included in 2.6.0 will then cause name conflicts and errors. You can go into your configuration folder and delete the AnkerMake.ini/idx/folder files to remove the community profiles and use the shipping profile instead.

Yeah I think that is the issue. I had a the original Anker M5 profile built by trey already installed. Assumed it would be okay since the profiles were not named the same but I guess not. Didnt even think about that

I wonder if it makes sense to rename the profile to AnkerMake instead of Anker. I think AnkerMake is technically more correct

@UncleJessy I can confirm that if you loaded my profiles manually this indeed would cause this issue. Sorry for the confusion. @Cisien let's discuss naming on discord

@just-trey @Cisien @UncleJessy Would you share the community profile in question to us? I would like to see what exactly caused the problem and if we could prevent it in future.

@kocikdav, all versions are here https://github.com/just-trey/AnkerMake-M5-Profile/releases. I was waiting for the release and shared these beforehand. I will probably stop making this public now that it is included, but I need to understand the process of updating better.
