Can’t open older files with the newest version of the student software

  I just installed the newest student software and wanted to open a file from my professor. When trying to open it, I get the following message:"Legacy project files can no longer be opened in this version of Electronics Desktop. Please use release 2022 R2 or earlier to convert the project to current format."
  I am confused because I thought that the Ansys programs had forward compatibility. Can anyone help me with this issue?
  Thanks in advance

  Are you trying to open a design in 2023 R1 or 2023R2?
  Assuming that the answer to the above question is "yes", this is the answer to that:
  Before trying to open the file in the 2023R1 or 2023R2 version, kindly go through the "New 3D Geomerty kernel..." document under the "Help" tab as show below:
  This will help you to migrate your project to the new version.
  
  Hope this is helpful.
