I assume you used Win Explorer for that.....
However then all already applied (inserted) custom charts/indicators
are still linked to files in the AFL folder. I mean: did you then do
a Grand Operation of manually replacing those with the (identical)
ones in the Formulas folder? Sort of re-linking them?
Still puzzled that this issue is not discussed in release notes,
unless I overlooked it, which I probably did... happy though that
I'm not the only one with the AFL folder! Thanks.

(since there will be 2 editions of the files, but works without any
probs).
