Thanks for the explanation but I think this is a good reason for including the
export button. As an end user I have no idea there is a connection between
profiles and the resources folder. I could see the profiles but I couldn't
export them from within Krita.

I'm happy to try out the kritarc and resource folder method but in the document
you have linked there isn't any description about these being used to backup
Krita's settings, instead the description talks about how to 'reset' Krita.

Just to talk it out, how many different things do you need to backup Krita's
all of settings? As far as I'm aware now, there's the Keyboard shortcuts, Brush
bundle, kritarc and resource folder. That's quite a few things, when you say
'all settings' does the resource folder include keyboard shortcuts and custom
brushes? I'm just not sure as to what is in that folder.

A 'one shot' button for exporting all of Krita's settings would allow basic
users to backup their settings without having to go to the appdata folder. It
could even give you the option of what exactly you want to backup.
