Hi,

I have a robot with RobotWare 5.61.04 and I would like to open a backup from it in RobotStudio 2024.2.1. However this particular RW version is not available under the Add-in tab.

I’m sure this is a well known an solved problem but I can’t find a solution for it here on the forum. Could someone point me in the right direction on how to get this to work?

Thanks !
