Project Link downloading project plan in "ppp" format instead of "mpp".

When I try downloading a Project Plan its getting downloaded in PPP format, but MS Project sees that in mpp format.

I have installed and resinstalled PTC Plug in, and checked all the Windchill Preference manager variables. Please help.

I used to be able to access it up till a week back, then after my laptop got reimaged I am seeing these issues.I am stuck as I cannot do changes to the project anymore.

Please Help !!!!! Thanks in advance !

Yes, this is correct. We do not reformat the plan into a Microsoft Project MPP file. The output from Windchill is an XML file. If you are not using the ProjectLink Plug-in to read this file directly into Microsoft Project, you can change the extension of the file to XML and open with MS Project.

This information can be found in the Windchill Help Center under the topic named Exporting a Plan to Microsoft Project.
