Can't open UiPath old versions

[zakaria_hamdane]

I have UiPath 20.4.3 CE stable version, whenever I want to open an old UiPath project, it gets blocked on “Adding dependencies” as shown on the image attached,
I tried to delete the project “project.json” file, I reinstalled UiPath studio, the problem remains!

Hi @zakaria_hamdane,

Please refer this below link:

Project Version Error

Hi. I am trying to convert excel into dictionary using “Excel To Dictionary” activity but i am getting “Error detecting project version”. Is this due to some missing dependencies if yes, which? I am using studio 2019.7.0 Thanks in advance. Aishwarya

Thanks,
Neelima.

hi @zakaria_hamdane ,

1. Delete the Project.json File from the Project Folder
2. Double Click on any Xaml (say main.xaml) to let it open in uipath Studio.
3. Project. json will be created automatically.

Note - Please take backup of existing project in case we mess something
