Apologies for the late response.

Firstly, you need to extract the V17 backup zip in Windows, so that it creates the V17 company as a folder. Save the folder in your Xpress18 folder.

Use the Add Company button to add the company to the menu.

Open the company - the system will then upgrade the data files to V18.

There is no need to use the Conversion module for companies created in V12 onwards.
