[Solved] Where to find the -IdfId of different esp-idf versions (used by the Initialize-Idf.ps1 script)

After updating to esp-idf v4.4.6 it seems something broke. Now I'm looking for a way to create another powershell shortcut on my desktop for the old 4.4.4 version. But it seems to do so I need to know the -IdfId... How and where can I find this?
I could reinstall 4.4.4 again but I think I applied some patches so I'd prefer to use the old install and just create a new powershell shortcut.

Solved my issues for now by rerunning the esp-idf-tools-setup 'using existing ESP-IDF directory' with my old 4.4.4 install.
Still would like to know where to find the IdfId to understand how I could setup and use Inialize-Idf.ps1 shortcuts to multiple idf versions myself though, without running the esp-idf-tools-setup each time, as this could come in handy in the future.

Looks like the IDs can be found in esp_idf.json in the IDF's root directory.

Thank you! Overlooked that. Did check the idf-env.json but not the esp_idf.json for some reason.
