I am using MacOS Big Sur and Lightroom Classic - When I want to add an additional paper icc profile, I accidentally imported the batch instead of just the new one. I managed to delete the duplicates in my Library/ColorSyn folder but the duplicates still appear on the Popup as (2) AND I cannot see the new one added even though when I double check the ColorSyn folder it's there.

How can I delete those (2)s showing on the list?

Why is the new ones added not showing up? Is there a limit to the list so the new ones will not be accepted because of the (2)s ?

Help appreciated

That list is generated based on the profiles in various locations on your HD. You need to click the check box for them to show outside that list. If you don't want them at all, you'll have to find and remove them. There are various locations on the Mac where they can reside, try using the ColorSync Utility, it lists them and where on the drive they rside. If they still show up after they are removed, try resetting your preferences, that might clear up the list: https://helpx.adobe.com/lightroom-classic/help/setting-preferences-lightroom.html

The problem is that the new installed icc which I installed and found in the ColorSync/Profile finder was not showing on outside that list, so no checkbox to click to get it showing in Soft Proof and Printing.

I reset the preference setting as per Method 1 noted on the link you provided, the (2)s are still showing but the newly added one is not.

But, as those that were duplicated on the "others" list in the pop up box in LR were actually in the ColorSync/Profile only once ... you mean I should clear out all and install them back again?

I don't know what you mean by "ColorSync/Profile finder".

Yes, one problem is, the ColorSync utility is buggy and needs to be fixed. It used to show this, about two, three major OSs ago. Is that what you're referring to?
