Now select the location where you have pasted those 3 Nero Aaccode files?
Just go to this location ‘‘C: Program Files/megui’’ and select a file available there > neroAacEnc.exe > Press > Save.

Okay now step 2 to import all profiles into MeGUI.
find > allprofiles .Rar (Do not open folder which already listed into my torrent) okay Right-click on allprofiles.rar file > Extract files > and copy the folder which is inside the allprofiles folder. open it and then copy the available folder.
See below:
http://i.imgur.com/EVMIHyU.png

Double click on it and copy the same-named folder from it.
http://i.imgur.com/UQHkoy4.png
(Or else you can just copy & paste the allprofile folder which is already available into torrent)

Go to ‘‘C: Program Files/megui’’ and paste this folder here by replacing previous one. Overwrite it.

Remember: before you complain that MeGUI did not store allprofiles? then please Close & Restart MeGUI as I told if not works then Restart your PC/Laptop and try again by opening MeGUI. After doing this if still no luck? Then Check the allprofile folder in ‘‘C: Program Files/megui’’ and see if your system missed any profile folder or try to repeat that part again carefully.

Hola Hola!! all done here!!

Okay I spend 3 hours from fresh installation, screenshots, and creating this thread, at least I made something to help you out, and I hope you guys will appreciate my work. if you still have any question then feel free and ask me through pm or leave a post below.

Thanks For Reading Fellas!! Enjoy!

hi, I know its late sorry for that but anyone pls provide me the “allprofiles.rar” file as i have downloaded all those 7 upper listed files manually but i don’t know where to find the allprofiles.rar file and the torrent is not downloading which is reasonable as it is going to be 1 year.Thanks!

sorry to irritate you over and over again but the download of the above torrent started after i requested you but stuck at 31% please allprofiles.rar is not available on Internet(as of my searching) (most of the links are expired), it’s like people got a new method to decrease the video file size or they are fine downloading and keeping big file size.

hi, i am really left out here tried with various versions of megui 0.3, 2525, 2913, 2876, 2050, in 0.3 it lets me to confirm to update and restart megui and after that run updater error,[Annotation 2020-05-17 143215(

Annotation 2020-05-17 143500
Annotation 2020-05-17 1435001686×1080 377 KB
) (ss of 2913, 2876 version when i click config button in video encoding), and in 2050 version unable to update 7 resources and it prompts me again and again to restart and update, i know its my fault somewhere but checked everything twice, tried disabling antivirus also, It would be really-really nice of someone to give some other tricks or tweaks/should know’s to get it to working before i finally think of other means, or some other less sophisticated tools to do the same job. Thanks for your precious time !!

About the above error, Probably some values setting messing with, nothing else. PM me for further queries if required.
