Allow Captivate 2019 project files to be backward compatible with Adobe Captivate 2024 Application.
Allow Captivate 2019 project files to be backward compatible with Adobe Captivate 2024 Applications.
Problem: You cannot read Captivate Classic files (.CPTX) with the newer versions of Captivate that use (.CPT) file extension.
Method:
1. Open Adobe Captivate Classic 2019
2. Open or create a new project file
3. Save the project file, (.CPTX) file extension
- Open Adobe Captivate 2023
- Open the saved project file
- Look for files with .CPTX) 6a. CP 2023 will not allow .CPTX files to be opened (Read, Write, Edit)
Result: Failed to open CP Classic 2019 files with anything newer than CP 2021 that only reads .CPT file extensions
Expected: It is expected that CP 2023 should be backward compatible to read Captive Classic 2019 project files.
Workaround: NONE. The suggestion was offered to re-create the entire project again. However, this is not a feasible workaround.
