-     * I have no idea what the whole fooling around with loadPath bussiness means anymore.
-     * Let's write something clear that doesn't rely on magic global state instead
-     * We need to: 1) Find a qTox profile, create if needed 2) Find a tox save, decrypt/create if needed
-     * Not sure about the order tho. Look into this.
-     *
-     * Okay we fixed encrypted profiles at least partially (needs testing wrt profile switching, corruption?)
-     * Need to make sure history encrypted and not is handled correctly
