How To Open The Backup of A Converted Library File

ETAP creates a backup file with a .LBK extension of any library file prior to converting it to a new version. To open this backup library file, one should rename the .LBK extension to .LIB, then open the renamed file from the library menu in their ETAP project. This allows users to access the pre-conversion version of their customized library if needed.

How to Open the Backup of a Converted Library File

Description: ETAP creates a backup of ETAP libraries prior to library file conversion. This
document describes how to access the backup library.
Category: Library Conversion, Backup Library File
Type: Instruction
Keywords: Library, Conversion, .LBK

ETAP requires conversion of libraries when connecting to an earlier version of the ETAP
libraries. You may need to convert an earlier version of ETAP libraries in order to Copy/Merge
libraries or simply to use your earlier version customized library.

Prior to library conversion, ETAP creates a backup of the library file and adds a file extension of
.LBK. This file is located in the same directory as your library file.

In order to open the backup library file, rename the .LBK file extension to .LIB. Then go to your
project and click on Library on the top toolbar, select Open and Browse to the renamed library
location and select it.
