Default Impossible to restore previous session on new install

Hi Jdownloader2 team,

I have a problem, i've built myself a new system with a new Windows 10 install but i want to get back my previous session of Jdownloader installed on another SSD, i know how to do it because i had some problems in the past and i was able to recover my downloadList and my linkcollector by copying/replacing the backup files into the cfg folder...
But it doesn't work this time and i don't know why, i've tried everything since yesterday by following your guides and by reading your forum hoping to find someone with the same problem as me but nothing works.
So what i did next was to simply launch Jdownloader2 installed on my previous SSD with Windows 10 installed on it on the default folder and it works perfectly, all links are there and i could update too and i did, of course i made a backup of everything before so i have a complete backup file, a complete copy of the Jdownloader2 install and a copy of all downloadList and linkcollector (i think there's 6 of each in zip file format and some other in zip.backup format)
I can continue to use Jdownloader2 the way it was before upgrading my PC just by pluging my old SSD with an USB external adapter but it's not ideal and i just want to backup some stuff on it before focusing only in my new system.
So my question is, what is the problem ? why can't i recover my downloadList and linkcollector ?
I've made a new fresh install of Jdownloader2 64 bits 1.8 java (the one on your official site) and i have tried everything, copying manually, importing, renaming etc but nothing works, Jdownloader2 on my new install does not load my backups...
I also copied the entire Jdownloader2 folder of my old SSD in the default folder on my new SSD (after uninstalling the new one) and nothing works.
What come to my mind is one thing, on my previous SSD, Jdownloader2 was installed on : Username : "name" : AppData : Local this is the default folder but when i've installed Windows 10 on my new SSD, Microsoft did not ask me to choose a name for the user folder so what Windows has done is to use the beginning of the name of my mail address to name the user folder... for example : before (old SSD) : Username : Alexandre : AppData : Local : Jdownloader2
Now (new SSD) : Username : Starl (beginning of my mail address) : AppData : Local : Jdownloader2
Maybe it's because of that ? i can't change the name of my folder because it's complicate and it can damage important files and make the system unstable...

PS : Java is installed on my new PC, i have no error message, in the right corner of your app, you see its scanning the links for 3 seconds and then nothing...
My backup are not corrupted because everything works fine on my old SSD, maybe your app has a problem with user with different names i don't know...
