OK. So what's the difference between the Profiles within the chevrons and those without the chevrons?

The ones with chevrons appear to be defaults included with the install. The ones without chevrons have been created or imported. My OOTB installation only had the profiles with chevrons included. I created a new profile based on my login name and made it my default. Once I had my desktop set up the way I like it, I exported it in case I need to re-load it after a re-install I hope I never have to do.
Hi,

4 letters 😉
Joke apart, I don't know your country-kits. But what I would do is to start the ET-command _SYSVDLG ==> button "Save All" export the variables to an ascii-file (for each AutoCAD-profile one file) and compare then the files with excel.
Good luck, - alfred -
That's pretty much how I understood it. But if you look at the image in my post. The top one has the chevrons but is not from the install. It matches the one I have highlighted. I'm interested in how the program might treat one with chevrons vs. one without.

IMHO AutoCAD sees them as different profiles, the chars "<" ">" are no special characters that makes AutoCAD (or Civil) think that they are something like equal or dependent to each other.
And I saw the profile-names with "<< ... >>" as the profiles created by installation, but that may depend on your country-kit-developers, how they handle it.

The profiles with the chevrons are the default profiles delivered with the software. Whenever a new user starts an ACad based product they are automatically generated for the user.
The other profiles are custom profiles generated by some other means (usually a custom arg file).
