Saving the project file after receiving an error message of "The data could not be read." may cause loss of the text data and any other screen data which had been edited after the text data.

Verification after update
IMPORTANT
If you use GP-Pro EX V2.2x (Ver. 2.20.000 to Ver. 2.22.000) under the condition mentioned in the "Occurrence conditions", there is a possibility that the text data has already changed before updating the version.
Therefore, it is necessary to open the screen data or project data to check whether the unit displays normally after the update.
(Please also check the data after updating GP-Pro EX from V2.2x (Ver. 2.20.000 or Ver. 2.22.000) to 2.5x (Ver. 2.50.000).
If the error message of "The data could not be read." appears upon opening a screen project file, it means that the text data has been already altered. In this case, please do not “Save the project” but just exit the program.
Saving the project may change the text data or clear other screen data created after the text was registered. Therefore, please contact our technical support hotline without doing "Save the project"
We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause to you and appreciate your understanding and cooperation.
