Hello David,
Some quick thoughts to add to Francois' reply:
For good measure, first check, via '
Help | About Hauptwerk' on your new computer, that you are indeed running v6.0.2 (since an older version might not be able to read files that were saved by a newer version). Assuming so:
The XML parsing errors that you're getting indicate that the relevant files have become corrupted somehow. That might be because of (for example):
- A faulty RAM board, either in the new PC (most likely), or on the previous PC from which the backup was made (resulting in the file having been corrupted before it was backed up). Test the PC's RAM thoroughly for errors. Also, if possible, see whether you get the same error when loading that organ on the original PC (so as to try to determine whether the file was corrupted on the original PC).
- A faulty SSD/hard-disk drive on one of the two PCs. (Test that too.)
- (Unlikely) some other hardware fault on one of the two PCs, e.g. the power supply.
- The files having become corrupted somehow as you transferred them between the two PCs.

Maybe that was this topic:
