Save changes

[ouadji]

I open a vi with a different version of my current version of Labview,
I make some changes and I would simply like to save it by keeping its original version.

Nothing to do with "save for previous version".

"save for previous version" ... keeps the file, opens a new folder, saves the file in this new folder ...

then i need to copy the file from this new folder, overwrite my first file, delete the folder.

Please ...

When the source version is different from the current version of LV

something like this would be very convenient,

in this case, LV simply overwrites the file and keeps its original version

How do you overwrite the file and also keep the original version?

Okay.  Now it is clearer.  I interpreted version meaning the version of your VI, not the version of LabVIEW that your VI is saved as.  So I was trying to wrap my head around the concept of "overwrite my previous VI while also keeping my original VI."
