FlexSim files are backwards compatible. If you save a file in an older version of FlexSim, you can open it in a newer one.

FlexSim files are not forwards compatible. If you save a file in a newer version, you cannot open it in an older version.

@Akhil raja rao K

Could you please start a new question, because either you found a bug or something is wrong with your model but in both cases this has nothing to do with the question about opening you model in a different version. And if you open a new question, please add the model and explain in more detail what is not working.
