Cannot save item from <labview>\resource folder to previous version

Solved!

Hi,

 

I have a quick drop plugin written in LabVIEW2013, without any special new feature.

I am trying to save this plugin in previous version, but I get this message : "Cannot save item from <labview>\resource folder to previous version"

Even after deleting the whole content of my VI, I get the same error...

 

What's the problem with this resource folder ?

With previous versions of LabVIEW, I was able to do that without any problems.

 

Thanks for your advices !

So NI locked it down.  Just copy the VI to your desktop and then do the Save For Previous.  I can understand why they would want to keep you from doing this since so many things change from release to release.  But this is new to 2013 (just tried with 2012 and it was fine).
