Question

Where are my presets?

I've been creating, lately, new presets in new specific groups. The problems are two.

1.-First of all, that they are not in the same folder, when I try to export them, so they lost organization.

2.-The second one is that they are in a xmp file instead of being in the typical preset file. My doubts are the following

1.-How can I do to get them in the same folder?

2.-A user with an older lightroom version can install and use this xmp preset files? How should he do it?

Thank you very much!

As to your second # 2. No users of older versions of LR can't, to my knowledge, use newer presets in the XMP format.

So, users of older versions can use the new presets? But, how can the install them? As they are in new format...

Thank you very much!

The new format for presets is XMP.

Not sure what you mean by not in the same folders. Please show us a screen shot of the LR window, showing the preset order, and the file manager window showing how they aren't in whatever folder.

As you can see, there are 10 presets in the chaman experience sunset presets group. However, as you can see, too, there are just 6 of them in the folder named as the group. I get this folder through lightroom>preferences>presets adjust (I let you where in the third screen capture).
