My files are all made in a newer version of xd. (24.3.22)
I have to work on the files in my school, but theres an older version installed. When I try to open my file on the pc in school, theres a report that says, "The file can not open in this version" (so similar).
The school can not update the progam, because they have an other license...
So: how can I open this files in older versions? or, should I create my next file in an other version on my pc? Does somebody has any idea?
Hello JB Home,
We are sorry to hear you're facing trouble. There's no way to save XD files as a specific version, XD file it is auto-upgraded and can no longer be opened in previous versions. Please update the xd with the latest version and try to open the file.
Regards,
Arpitha
Hi there,
We're so sorry to hear about the trouble. I am afraid, we don't have an option to open a file created in a newer version of XD on an older version of XD as we revise our document format when we release a new version to support new features. Having said that, we have received similar requests on our Adobe XD UserVoice: https://adobexd.uservoice.com/forums/353007-adobe-xd-feature-requests/suggestions/38322424-save-as-older-version
Please upvote to add voice to the feature.
Regards
Ri

That was one if the biggest issues with XD was the lack of backward compatabilty with its files.

You might wanna checkout this tool: https://xd2sketch.com/open-xd-file-old-corrupted it allows you to make your file compatible with older XD versions.

I found a great way to do that.
just export your files as SVG.
and create a new project in the old version
then drag them to the new project
and enjoy š

Does this really work? I mean, will the elements on teh canvas appear in the original status and functionality as it was in the original file? Thanks for helping.
