Is that ALL projects? If you [download this sample project](https://www.realmacsoftware.com/downloads/elements/projects/sticky-note.zip), does it open? Can you send us the project that won’t open so we can take a look at fixing it for you? Send it over to [dan@realmacsoftware.com](mailto:dan@realmacsoftware.com) 👍 ---

Ah-ha! We’ve taken a look at the project and found the issue 😅 We should have a new build out later tonight (or tomorrow, UK time) that will allow you to open your project. Sorry for the disruption! ---
