I am using 7.4 and Cannot Import Window (vwin) file. What is up with that? Will someone help me out here? ![:scratch:](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/1X/76d1620bec252bfac07050c889ff5a91dc8a9c25.gif ":scratch:")

You can. You just need to hold down Shift when you right click on the Windows folder. You will see a Legacy Import (vwin) in the list.

Going forward, the shift-right click option is gone (as of 7.4.3). The normal import will let you choose either a legacy .vwin file or a .proj file.
