P: Manage/Delete Camera Profiles

hello! I recently added a custom camera profile to test out some settings in Lightroom CC. But now I want to delete that profile, is there a way to do so?

    i've verified with the team that the functionality you are asking for is not in the product at this time. I am changing this to a feature request.

      Same here. Lightroom 4.0. If the profile is installed under "user profiles" it can be deleted. But if a custom profile is installed in "profiles" or "camera matching" it can not be deleted. (There is not even an option for it).

      Have you tried updating to Lightroom Desktop 4.0 to see if the profile is now deletable?

      Ah, this is a Camera Matching Profile. To delete you must use the OS. 

      Close Lightroom
      Go to Macintosh HD / Users / [your username] / Library / Application Support / Adobe / CameraRaw / CameraProfiles / 
      Delete the profile you wish to remove. 
      Launch Lightroom.

        I imported it on LR CC on my Mac desktop, going to Manage profiles, and Import. 

        It showed up under a group called "Profiles". That's where I try to right click and nothing happens.

        Are you clicking on a user profile (removable) or a system profile (not removable)?
