CCS/MSP430F2011: CCS 8.1 Project Import fails with older CCS 7.x project

Part Number: MSP430F2011

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

I get an error when I try to import a project last used with CCS 7.x when I try to import the project into a fresh install of CCS 8.1. The error message detail is:

See details below.
Error: Import failed for project 'SW67411B0-01' because its meta-data cannot be interpreted. Please contact support.

I am using Windows 10 Pro 1803 (build 17134.112) and Code Composer Studio Version: 8.1.0.00011. Only Windows Defender antivirus. 

I can supply the project files I am trying to import if someone at TI wants them to investigate this issue.

I'm not sure which version of CCS was last used with this project, but I believe it was 7.2. I have moved to a new PC and just installed the latest CCS.

    Hi Dennis,
    If you can provide those project files (the .*project files in the project folder), that would be very helpful. You can send it to me via private message if you do not wish to post publicly.

    Thanks

    I think I figured it out.

    I had previously tried to use the File->Open Projects From File System which created a .project file in that directory. After I deleted that project file the Project->Import CCS Projects... function worked as expected, and I can now rebuild the project.

    Thanks for the offer of support though.

    Ah, ok. Yes, you need to use the latter option for CCS projects. Glad to hear you resolved the issue and thanks for the update!
