I have a collection of film simulation settings in files ending in .fp1 on my computer.

Some I have downloaded from the internet and some I have created myself.

The limitation of the Fuji X Raw Studio software, from which the simulations are handled, is that when I connect the X-T4 to my computer, it can only process pictures taken with that camera. It is impossible to process pictures taken with other models, such as the X-E2, X-T2, X-T3 and X-S10.

I find this a major limitation of Fujifilm's software.

The limitation is that the software must use the camera's own internal processing engine to do what it does (proprietary Fuji in-camera RAW processing). If you want to process X-T2 files, you must connect an X-T2, X-T4 files, you must connect an X-T4. It's not impossible to process files from other cameras but If you don't have the other cameras that produced the files, you do indeed have a problem.

Pretty sure the older X-E2 isn't supported at all, though.
