Beyond Compare 4.0.0.17628 beta moves the location of helper applications for file formats from a helpers subfolder of Beyond Compare's program folder to a helpers subfolder in the user settings folder. On Windows, the new location is "%appdata%\scooter software\beyond compare 4\helpers".
The new location allows non-admin users to import file formats that use external helper applications. However, if you've downloaded file formats that call helper applications from our Additional File Formats page, this change will make them stop working.
"Conversion error" is the message that will display if you have a file format affected by this change. To resolve the issue, install the file format from our website again. During the import, check the box next to the format name in red to replace the old version of the file format.
