Hi all.
I have read a bunch of posts on the forum over the years on the "invalid archive apa" problem, including http://www.plctalk.net/qanda/showthread.php?t=92132
I would always just update my version to the latest and life would be good again. in this case, a competitor made changes to a pv+ 700 (v5.0 firmware) button style display in november 2019, and left an apa.
it wont restore even with v11 and all the patches installed citing invalid archive, and the new me version utility also says invalid archive. the mer comes back as the proper firmware in the utility.
when i try the 7zip method it also fails saying its not a valid archive. i tested with older apa files and it worked successfully.
is there anything else i can try or am i up siht creek? im working on getting my rockwell account linked to our tech connect but currently i cannot read them yet.
