cannot find custom .xml thread file folder

I have generated a couple of .xml files to create metric files for telescope adapters.
whenever Fusion 360 updates I have to re-insert these .xml files into
C:\Users\*******\AppData\Local\Autodesk\webdeploy\production\d329 .........            34a8\Fusion\Server\Fusion\Configuration\ThreadData
however on trying to create an adapter with these threads they are not listed amongst the others (as was usually the case)
I assume the folder has been moved or since I'm using the 'hobbyist' version , this facility has been withdrawn.
It worked ok since the last update (unless there was another I'm unaware of)
How can I remedy this? What is the new 'thread' folder path?  Thanks in advance

There's a plugin in the App store to help with managing thread xml files, here. Or have you tried a search for one of the standard file like ANSIUnifiedScrewThreads

Thank you very much!!
It worked prefectly - I can resume making custom optical fittings for my telescopes now.
Your response was amazingly prompt!  I just checked this evening on the off-chance someone might reply.
Once again, many thanks.

do you happen to have the file modified for a one inch thread?

@slahy84 I would not recommend modifying one of Fusion's default XML file.

 

Try the program @MRWakefield shared in this thread to create a new file and save to the correct folder. You might also want to get the thread keep program to keep your XML file in the correct folder after Fusion is updated.
