To open a project already under version in RoboHelp for the first time

Hello Everyone,

In RH html help it is mentioned that first time when you open your project in the new version (I have RH v6) which was created in the old version of RH (in my case it was created in RH x3) the project is converted to the new project file type (.xpj) and the old project file (.mpj) is deleted.

So far, I have done the first step and project is converted to the new project file type (.xpj) but the old file type (.mpj) is still there – is it might be because it was read only.

My greater concern is the next step which is mentioned in the Help, my supervisor doesn’t agree with that which is ‘Add the project back to version control in a different folder than the original .mpj project file. Somehow, he doesn’t agree with that and I am really not sure if there is going to be any impact for not doing that because currently in Windows explorer I can see both the project file types – one with the .mpj and the other one with the .xpj. And also, I am not sure if the huge difference in size of both the file types is a concern (old mpj file size is coming 544 KB & the new xpj file size is coming only 3KB). Please, give me your feedback.

Your help is greatly appreciated,

Thanks
