I can´t import my files to Robohelp trial version 2019. Why? I start by open project, but it´s not possible to make an import of the files...

Use the Upgrade Project option.

I´ve tried, but it doesn´t work. It can´t seem to import the files. Is there any other way?

I open this file with upgrade project option. I don´t have any previous version. 2019 is my first version, but i´m importing the files from another using the 2017 version

The file isn't showing the XPJ extension. Add that and try again.

how do I add the extensions?

In Windows File Explorer, right click and select Rename. Add .xpj
Then start the project upgrade again. The problem has been that there was no XPJ file for RoboHelp to see.

I´ve tried renaming the file with xpj ending. That didn´t help….

So please do what I asked in one of the threads and create a numbered list
with the steps you are following starting by stating whether you are
opening 2019 or 2019 Classic.

Something has gone horribly wrong along the way. You are showing the XPJ file as a page in the TOC, I have no idea how you have managed that. Rather than investigate that, I think you need to start again.
On the new machine delete the copy of the project.
On the old machine zip up the original project. Copy the zip file to the new machine and unzip. I am saying to do it that way for a reason.
With the new copy on the new machine, make sure the XPJ file shows as an XPJ without you renaming it as before.
Then double click that XPJ file and it should open in 2019 Classic.
If it doesn't, we will have to deal with it tomorrow. What time zone are you in?

OK. Time for you to finish I'm thinking. All the best mistakes are made
late in the day. ☺️
Post how you get on.
If still stuck, send me the zipped project. See the Contact page on my site.
If necessary perhaps we can set up a screenshare tomorrow.
