Common Issue when Loading/Saving
A common issue when using VEXcode Project files is trying to select the project file to be opened directly by the operating system.
If you try to open a VEXcode Project file by double clicking it, nothing will open.
All VEXcode VR Project files can ONLY be opened within VEXcode VR. View the Open an Existing Project section from this article for more information.
