Describe the problem with the article
I had an issue on MacOS after running the user where the IDE would not start as it was pointing to the older folder...
I had multiple versions of Arduino IDE installed over the years.

The problem was that Arduino IDE 2.0 uses a location in my instance a location not specified anywhere in the documentation

/Users/yyy/.arduinoIDE/arduino-cli.yaml -> that a file with OLD bad setting...

This directory wan't mentioned anywhere and resulted in me wasting lots of time.

- incorrect or outdated content
Please mentioned on both of these pages stating this new directory
~/.arduinoIDE
