New folder structure in Cura 5.x

C:\Program Files\Ultimaker Cura 5.1.0\share\cura\resources  (system wide installed folder, requires admin to modify)
%appdata%\cura\5.1 (specific to your logged in user, doesn't need admin)

Extract the pieces into the appropriate folders

For example for Cura Mini or Cura Mini+, drill into the downloaded folder to:

Cura_OriginalPrusa_Profiles\Cura_OriginalPrusa_Profiles\Cura_OriginalPrusa_Profiles\Cura_4_0_0\MINI_cura_profiles

Then extract each of the folders to the right places in the Cura folder above:

Definitions

%appdata%/cura/5.1/definitions

Copy in

01_Cura_printer_definitions/Original_prusa_MINI.def.json

Extruders

%appdata%/cura/5.1/extruders  

Copy in

02_Cura_printer_extruders/Original_Prusa_MINI_extruder_0.def.json

Meshes

C:\Program Files\Ultimaker Cura 5.1.0\share\cura\resources\meshes # requires admin writes to add to here

Copy in

03_Cura_meshes/Original_Prusa_MINI_platform.stl

LayerHeight Profiles aka Quality

These don't get found automatically, they have to be imported thru the Preferences window:

Cura > Preferences > Profiles > Import

Navigate to and import

04_Cura_layerheight_profiles/*.curaprofile

These are technically stored here:

%APPDATA%\cura\5.1\quality_changes\*.inst.cfg  and with a version for each extruder

Materials

These don't get found automatically, they have to imported thru the Preferences window:

Cura > Preferences > Materials > Import

Navigate to and import

04_Cura_layerheight_profiles/*.xml.fdm_material

These are stored here:

%APPDATA%\cura\5.1\materials\*.xml.fdm_material

Under Linux, the meshes are looked up also in ~/.local/share/cura/5.10/meshes/, so you can copy Original_Prusa_MINI_platform.stl there which is a lot better, especially if you use the AppImage which is a hassle to modify. For Windows, this might be %appdata%/cura/5.10/meshes/.
