Welcome.

Looks like you have multiple clearance tools specified when you don't need to as the same tool is being used over and over. Remove the duplicates from the tool list in the pocket toolpath.

Not sure what you mean about the profile toolpath but at a guess I'd say you're either saving the wrong toolpath entirely or you're saving/running only one part of the multi-part pocket toolpath.

It's always best to attach the actual VCarve (CRV) file (copyright permitting) as it makes it much easier to see exactly what you've done.

These tutorials will help with the pocket toolpath and the saving of toopaths.

Are your vectors joined?

If they weren't it is actually pocketing each side of each line so it would look like a profile cut.

As Adrian said, please attach the file.
