Unfortunately, none that I know of ... ED has been moving for quite a while to a scheme where your data goes only on the /Saved Games/ path, and you are discouraged to modify the DCS program's folder .. they have gone to the extent of encrypting a lot of their content, which they have the right to.

 

What I do for the User Campaigns that I  have, is edit their names, so that all the Campaigns of a certain aircraft end up grouped together on the listing, like this:

 

 

To edit their names, I open their *.CMP file with Notepad++, and edit the field ["name_EN"] = "campaign name" .. it's usually at the end of the file.

Thanks at least the name change helps a little!

This is excellent advice. Thank you.
