You should not put downloaded profiles into the main install directory of the Natural Point software, eventhough it has a Profiles folder.
The program looks in the \Users<name>\Appdata\Roaming\NaturalPoint\TrackIR 5\profiles folder.
So all downloaded profiles should be put here. Then they’ll show up.Thanks for giving my profile a try! I’d love to hear your feedback.</name>

no appdata folder shows up under my user name….but when i try to create an appdata folder, it says it is already there???..any help would be appreciated?

What Operating System are you using? The AppData folder may be hidden.
From the BMS Manual (in your \Falcon BMS 4.33 U1\Docs\Falcon BMS Manuals folder) page 68:

1. Open Windows Explorer and click the ‘Organize’ button near the top left corner. Choose ‘Folder and search options’ from the menu.
2. Click the ‘View’ tab in the window that opens, then scroll down and untick the box next to ‘Hide file extensions for known file types’.How to show file extensions in Windows 8

Hey Darkman I can find the folder (App Data) and all the way to profiles folder, what I’m having problems with is getting the folder to show up in IR profiles. I tried to unzip folder in (Track IR 5\profile folder) final folder no joy in IR 5 profiles. I’ve tried putting the unzipped (two files on Desktop, readme and configuration folder) and moved the configuration folder over to proper folder, they still don’t show up. What am I doing wrong?

Like Darkman said; the AppData folder is hidden, because it is part of the system structure of Windows.
You will need to show hidden files and folders from the options menu of windows file browser.
Additionally you will need Administrator rights to copy anything in there as well. -
Thanks for the help Darkman and Yassy….much appreciated

Thanks for giving my profile a try! I’d love to hear your feedback.
For the record…I’ve been using your profile for well over a year… Love it! Thanks for sharing

That is always nice to hear! I hope you’ll find it useful yet for many more years.

Here as follows my little experience, because I have TIR Pro since a three months.
I’ve updated the software to the 5.4.2.27545 (hope I quoted it well), no issues to report about, since now at least.
And I’m currently using that fabulous Yassy’s profile, well worth to install - it works smoothly and precisely with the Pro sensor and with the cap either.
So, thanks a lot, bud, for having sharing it. You don’t know how many setting troubles (and time to find out the proper solution, most of all) you saved to an unknown unexperienced fellow pilot, just like I am.With best regards,

More digging around on the forum. Found the bit about showing hidden files. Yassy profile now showing up in track ir 5. Many thanks guys.

Updates won’t interfere with Falcon derivatives since they don’t use the encrypted interface.
