Hi,

I just updated from WINDOW 7.8.57 to 7.8.74 by downloading the small setup file from the website. A version of my 7.8.57 library was saved when I updated my version, such that I could import them into the new version.

My existing glass and frame libraries imported into the new version in full, however when I try to import my window assemblies, the popup window disappears after clicking ok without showing a list of my assemblies (photo below). I've tried unchecking the avoid creating duplicate records button to see if this would load my assemblies. 
Is there a workaround for this to recover my assemblies?

Thanks,

You should be able to just open the database from 7.8.57 that was saved, with 7.8.74. 

You might copy it to a new name, but there should be no problem opening it with the new WINDOW version, and then you don't have to do any importing into a new database.
