critial error receiving profile data

I saved my profile .json file. I was very outdated so i did a fresh install of spt-aki. I put my .json file back into user>profile and launched the game. this is the error message it gave me:

Critial error reciving profile data. close the game and contact us at forum in response to

http/127.0.0.1:6969/client/game/profile/list:

error converting value {null} to type 'system.single'. path '619eb0eb56579138ec08fed8.progress' line 1, position 395103.

any ideas? or did i screw myself and have to start over...

UPDATE:

I'm just gonna bite the bullet and start over... there goes a good few hundred hours. however, I would love to know how to update without losing my progress for next time.

Upload your profile here, its likely a minor profile edit

its not letting me upload the .json file.

is there a different way to upload my profile?
