importing prev PS version files - 1/19/2019 3:44:01 PM    frankc2   Posts: 4 Joined: 1/19/2019 Status: offline Just installed PS5, and I spent a *lot* of time today finding out all the PS file extensions, and then searching my computer for them to import into PS5. This could be a LOT easier if PS5 searched for them itself. Thank goodness for the free hard drive search program Everything. So we're off to a frustrating start... Post #: 1

And who could possibly remember all the filename extensions. I think PS5 should search for them. (in reply to ellengard) Post #: 4

And who could possibly remember all the filename extensions. It may be easier to identify them by sight. By default, all those old projects get saved in My Documents. Sort the files by type, in the My Documents folder, and you should be able to quickly ID the Print Shop ones. In the really old program (e.g. version 10 and 11), the projects were saved in a subfolder of the Print Shop folder. So again, they were easy to find by going to that folder.
