General Information about Upgrading Projects that Were Created in Earlier Versions of InstallShield
If you use InstallShield 2019 Express Edition to open a project that was created with an earlier version, InstallShield 2019 Express Edition displays a message box that asks you if you want to convert the project to the new version. If you reply that you do want to convert it, InstallShield creates a backup copy of the project with a file extension such as .772 before converting it. Delete the .772 part from the original project’s file name if you want to reopen the project in the earlier version of InstallShield. Note that you cannot open InstallShield 2019 Express Edition projects in earlier versions of InstallShield.
You can upgrade projects that were created with the following versions of InstallShield Express Edition to InstallShield 2019 Express Edition: InstallShield 2012 Express Edition and earlier, InstallShield 12 Express Edition and earlier and InstallShield Express 5 and earlier. Note that projects that were created with InstallShield MultiPlatform or InstallShield Universal cannot be upgraded to InstallShield 2019 Express Edition.
