How to copy or transfer joystick settings?

I think you just click on the tab at the top of the page for the controller you want and then click on the arrow below that to change to the profile you want.

I know exactly what you mean. I tried that.  I clicked the left and right arrows to look for the file and there are only three of them: the default, the default for a helicopter, and the current joystick. The new copied file is not showing up as a selection. I was hoping it would show up as a 4th option, but there are only those three.

Unfortunately can't help you there, hope you can figure it out.

I don't know why MSFS makes it difficult, but I found a solution.

They say there's "two ways to skin a cat".  In this case the cat is MSFS. Using Windows Explorer, I simply deleted the old file and renamed the restored or copied file the same name as the file I deleted. And it worked.
