Re: old project won't open in any version
@BaconFries
Thanks for clarification.
As you all could open my project without problems, i installed the latest v. 15 on my local computer, where i could open the project.
Then i deinstalled it on my Server, and installed the latest v. 15.... I can not open the project. As the new installationon my server is licensed without questioning, i assume, that the license file is stored in the registry and that`s the problem, why i could not open the project on the server. I think i have to clear the license information in order to get a fresh installation on my server, so that i could opnen the project in the same way, i could open it on my local machine. Am i right ?

Re: old project won't open in any version
You can clean the registry by deleting the following. Note you should always make a backup of the registry before doing anything.
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Pablo Software Solutions\WYSIWYG Web Builder 16
Or in your case for Win Server v15

Re: old project won't open in any version
Ok, latest news.
I did a fresh installation on my Win Server 2019. I could not open the projects.
On my local Win 10 Pro it works without a problem.
I have no idea, what i could do to get this fixed....

Re: old project won't open in any version
Are you sure both computers have the exact same version installed?
Are you sure all settings are exactly the same?

Re: old project won't open in any version
No, i'm not sure.
My local Laptop has Win 10 German, my server is an english version.
I did the installation on my local computer only for testing.
As i use the webbuilder with MySQL, and i don't want to install all the stuff on my local computer, it should work on my server.

@Pablo
By the way, my old server who crashes, was with 2016 version.
Is it possible that the activation of this server is stored in a databse on your side.

Re: old project won't open in any version
I also opened the project file on my local computer, did some changes and copied this new version to my server.
I got the same error message.

Re: old project won't open in any version
Are you sure you are opening the correct file (wbs)?
Are both versions 64bits?
It should not be this difficult to make it work. There must be a difference somewhere.
But it is difficult to help you without all the details about your computers, settings etc.

Re: old project won't open in any version
As Pablo's question what bit version of WB do you have installed 32bit or 64bit. Also have you installed all relevant extensions?Yes, both computers use the same Webbuilder version.

Re: old project won't open in any version
I installed the 32 bit Version 15.4.5 on both computers, at the moment with no extensions.
On the local computer i could open the wbs-File, on my server not.
