### How to reproduce

### Did this work correctly in an earlier version?

Apache NetBeans 17

### Operating System

linux

### JDK

Research direction

Start by reproducing settings import on Apache NetBeans 19 under Linux with OpenJDK 11, focusing on document groups and their documents. Trace the settings-import entry point and compare the imported group contents with the source; done when both groups and their documents transfer correctly.
