Additional Information

It’s a side effect of the strong naming that was applied for the assemblies. This caused the user.settings folder name to change.

Workaround

1. Use the Browse button and navigate to all of the previous projects. 2. Copy all of the <string><FilePath><string> variables from the user.config file from the <a href="file:C:/Users/" target="_blank">C:\Users\</a><UserProfile>\AppData\Local\ESRI\ArcGISPro.exe_Url_<RandomNumbersAndLetters>\<1.x.x.0 folder to the <a href="file:C:/Users/" target="_blank">C:\Users\</a><UserProfile\AppData\Local\ESRI\ArcGISPro.exe_StrongName_<RandomNumbersAndLetters>\2.0.0.0 user.config file.
