Opening an existing package

To open an already existing package, you have several options:

  1. If the package is still in the list of recently used packages, you can open the package by simply clicking on the corresponding entry in the list:



  2. If the package you want to open is not listed there, or if you have not yet opened the package, you can use the "Open Package" link on the home screen to open a dialog for opening a package.



    You can open package directories that contain a valid "Package.xml" package properties file.

  3. Since the Packaging PowerBench allows you to open more than one package at a time, you can also open another package at any time by clicking the corresponding button on the "Tasks" tab of the ribbon bar. Here too, you can access the last used packages via the drop-down list and open one of these packages directly:



  4. Finally, you also have the option to switch to the backstage view via the "File" menu and select the menu item "Open".
