Is there really no way to do this? I want to update to the newest Bizhawk, but... reconfigure the controls, profiles and everything else for every single core I used? Seriously? Along with all the other options I had ticked for Bizhawk in general. I tried using the Load Config option, but I just get an error. Come on, there has to be some way to avoid redoing everything...

For controls there is an intended option. check out defctrl.json. In your old version, in the controller config you should see a save defaults option in the Misc button dropdown. Do that which will overwrite this file. Then copy this file to the new version and do load defaults. In general this will work. Though in this past release there was a Nintento typo that was fixed that may or may not mess this up, but it should be easy enough to fix that manually after saving, if it causes an error.
It's hard to look this good. My TAS projects
