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?

    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?

    I still have this issue as well.  Lr 3.4, can't delete profiles made by xrite and imported to Lr.

    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)?

      I updated CR, LR and LRC to latest (2020-06-25).  When I try right click on a profile in Lightroom CC (non-classic: cloud), nothing happens. 

      When right clicking on the profile "group", i get 'reset hidden profiles' as posted above. 
      This is on Mac with OSX Catalina
