Diptrace lib downgradedable

#1 Post by crisbadea » 16 Oct 2024, 19:15

Hi,

I have Diptrace v4 full version, but recently I have tried v5, and made a few designs, added components and patterns to my own libraries, etc etc
After the free trial period, I switched back to v4 and I can't use my libraries anymore. Is this a known problem?
Is there a way to solve this problem without spending money?

I really appreciate any help you can provide.
Cris

Most every CAD - PCB, MECH S/W i have owned had the same issues.

1 - I never touch the "newest" on the main computer drive.
2 - all your work should be backed elsewhere regularly, and certainly before opening with the newest update.

comment - "I switched back to v4 and I can't use my libraries anymore. Is this a known problem?" Yes this can be a problem, if not given a smart backup protocol.
Comment -" Is there a way to solve this problem without spending money" Unknown to me. We have many many knowable persons here Plus Dip Trace support is above all others I have used.
