Re: Visual Studio Import file error "Invalid file format"

Hello and welcome to Advanced Installer forums,

We do not support importing projects created with the VS Express editions, limitation from Microsoft.

By the way, we do support the VS Community edition. Is there any reason why you are not using it? Read more about the VS Community in the Visual Studio Community article. Also check their license terms.

Let me know if you need any help with Advanced Installer.

Best regards,
Dan
