Can I edit a PE2019 project with PE2022?

Can I edit a PE2019 project with PE2022?

Postby BSK751 » Fri Apr 08, 2022 8:12 am

Hi

1)I have just purchased PE2022. However, I have an unfinished project which I was working on using PE2019. Can I download & install PE2022, then open and work on this project?

also:

2) When you have upgraded, are you supposed to delete the previous versions?

Thank you!

It's not a good idea to open an old version project in a new version of the program, Michele. It might work, but it can also lead to corruption and other odd behavior. For that reason, it's a good idea to keep old versions of the program on your computer until your old version projects are done.

And if there's any chance that you might have a need to re-edit a project in the older version, or use a feature that's in the old version but not in the new (which does happen sometimes), it's perfectly fine to leave it installed. At times I've been known to have had three different versions installed.
