Workspaces lost

[KennyK]

Hi,
When I installed V8 with V7 still installed, I was asked did I want V8 to copy V7's data etc, or something to that effect. Then once V8 was installed all my workspaces from V7 were available in V8. But then today I opened V7 for the first time since installing V8, changed a couple of the charts in a couple of the workspaces, as well as a updated a couple of instruments. Closed V7, opened V8 and all of the previously available workspaces imported from V7 were no longer there.

How do I fix this?

I checked in the folders under program files x86, and found in the V8 folder, a sub folder called workspaces which was empty.
In the V7 folder there was no workspaces folder.
I though I may be able to copy and paste the workspace data across, but maybe not?

Thanks,
Ken.

Hello,
I am going to contact our Product Management team on how your workspaces could have been migrated over from NinjaTrader 7 to NinjaTrader 8. The workspaces do not transfer from one version to the next. From the migration guide: "*Workspaces are not migrated because of significant changes to the way windows are formatted and arranged in NinjaTrader 8. You will need to rebuild your workspaces or obtain NinjaTrader 8 compatible versions of any workspaces provided by 3rd party vendors."

For more information on migrating from NinjaTrader 7 to NinjaTrader 8 please see the migration guide at the following link: http://ninjatrader.com/NinjaTrader-8-MigrationGuide
