At left, the Project Files pane lists the files in the new project. There is aproject file with the extension .kicad_pro, a schematic file with theextension .kicad_sch, and a board file with the extension .kicad_pcb. Thesefiles all share a name with your project.
The library names changed between versions, so if you don't have your old v5 libraries or you want to use the newer v7 libraries, you will need to update the fp-lib-table file. This can be just deleted (it is located in /.config/kicad/7.0/fp-lib-table on linux). Then, when restarting, accept the defaults.
Those fundamental differences between the two versions, BZR_4022 (the old stable) and v4.0.0_RC1 (the new stable) present challenges depending on your location in the design development cycle. This post will help you import an old kicad project from the old stable version into the new stable version.
