Loading User Preferences from an Earlier Release (NFS 67599)

As documented under "Loading User Preferences from the Command Line (NFS 67599)", later in this document, you can now load your exported user preferences file using the command line.

The loading of an exported file of your user preferences no longer supports the older‑style editor key bindings entries in your user preferences that were created in releases earlier than JADE version 2018.0.01. The loading of such files is therefore rejected when you import an earlier user preferences file and by a batch file load using the jadclient or non‑GUI client jade executable command line.

You should therefore export your older user preferences to a file in JADE 2018.0.01 and higher before importing or loading them into JADE 2020.0.01 and higher.
