Overview

Resource files reported as corrupt

If a Form or a UserControl is either created in version 6.4, or it is updated in 6.4, it will not open in the designer of an older version of Visual WebGui. The reason for this is the new resource mechanism we have in version 6.4.

At the moment, the best way to prevent this is by makining a good backup of your solution and projects before you start testing them on version 6.4. In worst case scenario, where you don't have backups, you can make your Form / UserControl open again in the older version by deleting the resource file (.resx), but then you will need to reassign all images that have been assigned on that Form / UserControl.
