Hi,
Will new versions of IFD/L/W restore old images (i.e. the latest version of Image will always restore an image made with an earlier version (apart from the change between versions 1 and 2!). If not is there anywhere that sets out when problems will arise?
Thanks

The latest V2 version will restore the older V2 .TBI files.
It won't restore the old V1 .IMG files.

Wasn't there a point in the v2 cycle where you advised that from a
certain point, only later version should be used to restore an image?
It was something to do with an incompatible (with earlier versions)
switch that you introduced.

The latest version could always be used to restore files created with the
older (same major) version. But there are times where a .TBI file created
with a newer version can't be restored with an older version.
