I than copied the files from programdata/mtu.com/Hoster/"all files" from the Ver 5.3 to Ver 5.35. They work just fine when I open them on Ver 5.35.
But I created a new file on the Ver 5.35 and wanted to use it on the Ver 5.3 and the pop up says wrong format ".hst".
This is so crazy as files can go to the newer ver 5.35 but not back to the older ver 5.3?
I tried bringing back a file created on the older Ver 5.3 and copied to the newer Ver 5.35 and than tried bringing it back to Ver 5.3 and wrong format.
Anybody got a clue?

There was a point due to changes in the later versions that they wouldn't be backward compatible. I'm don't remember at what point that happened but I believe that is your problem. If you had the same version you could have done what you want after duplicating the drives and then using the backup/restore feature.
