Warning box) or consult the toolbox Release Notes to see if they are compatible.

Closing a file removes the configuration from the toolbox. If the configuration has
not been saved, a dialog box displays and asks if the configuration should be saved.
Saving Files
Or choose the Save

Saving a file writes the entire contents of the configuration to a drive configuration
file (.acb). The prior drive configuration file (.acb) is renamed to a Backup of .icb
file and used as a backup file.

Save button saves the new file without asking for a file name.)
Tip ¬
The Save button also indicates that a change was made to the configuration
by highlighting (red) and becoming enabled. If the computer or toolbox fails when
the button is red, all changes since the last save is lost, so save files often.
