Unable to rename files using Design Assistant while files are saved from 2018 to 2019 inventor version

[sohaib.as01]

hello everyone, I have ran into a problem with the inventor and I have no idea how to fix it, maybe some of you guys can help?

So there were some old files that were in Inventor 2018 version, and now I need to use them in 2019 version, so I opened them, corrected them and then when I save them it tells me that the files will be saved in newer version so 2018 Inventor wont be able to open it, good enough for me, so I saved them and then proceed to rename all of these files using Design Assistant.

Now Design Assistant is unable to rename these files giving out an error that these files are old versioned files and cant be renamed unless I save them in the newer version, which I already did.

Can you let me know what is it that I am doing wrong here?

Based on your images, I would say that somehow you missed migrating two files.  Simply open and save them in Inventor 2019, then try again.

Oh well....thank you for pointing the obvious. Silly me.

But I am not entirely at fault, as these two parts are not being used in the assembly I am trying to edit in design assistant, so this shouldnt matter if these parts are old or new, as they are not even in the assembly. 

But when  seperately opened and migrated them, design assistant was able to edit the assembly, weird huh? 

Thanks @SBix26
