Productions .prodset file is greyed out. How do you open the file.

When I go I "open Production" there is an open production dialog box there that will open the production correctly. However, if the file doesn't auto populate in that dialog box than how do you open the production? 

 

I recently upgraded from 23 - 24 and that open production dialog box was empty. When you you "browse" to navigate to the folder the .prodset file is greyed out and cannot be selected. 

Correct answer mattchristensen

To open the production, you need only select the main production folder (the folder containing the .prodset file), not the .prodset file itself. You can't select the file because the file picker is expecting you to select a folder.

 

So basically, navigate till you see the .prodset file (you're now in the production folder) and then you should be able to click Open.

 

Alternatively you can open your production by opening any of the project files inside.
