Opening After Effects project files created in newer versions with older software isn't directly possible due to file format incompatibility. The solution requires using the newer After Effects version to navigate to `File -- Save As -- Save a Copy as CC (13.x)`, or an option specifying an older version. This feature allows saving the project file in a format compatible with previous major releases. For example, a project from After Effects 2023 (v22) can often be saved back to formats readable by 2022 (v21), 2021 (v20), or CC 2018 (v15). It's crucial to understand that while this enables opening, any features, effects, or expressions exclusive to the newer version might not work correctly, be absent, or replaced with placeholder elements in the older version. New effects or advanced text animators might revert to basic forms. Always save a copy, not overwrite your original, and thoroughly test the backward-saved project in the older After Effects version to ensure integrity and functionality.
