Save Camera RAW default - Elements 2021

Question

In Elements 2018, I had set up a default profile which catered for 80% of my preferred settings.

In 2021, there appears to be no option to save a camera Default RAW profile within RAW.

I must admit to being agrieved in upgrading and finding the main element of my editing has been downgraded, especially as it appears that the feature list of the Elements RAW editor is quite restricted compared with the full product, and all the descriptions of the RAW product do not make this clear. I'd be better off (£75 better off!) returning to version 2018.

I hope there is some hidden option somewhere I've missed. I only open photos from the card into RAW, and save them to another destination and rarely edit in the main Elements.

There is already a discussion reporting this change in the feedback forum:

https://feedback.photoshop.com/conversations/photoshop-elements/adobe-camera-raw-12-onwards-with-photoshop-elements/5fc5205cce4ce1357af23f73

I suggest to vote for this bug report in that discussion.

See the help file for Camera Raw

However, the button 'Help' in Camera Raw links to an old version of ACR in Elements (2018). The changes in UI and features is not available today.
