Important Notice!

On the first start of FARO Connect, you will be prompted to “MIGRATE” all your previous projects. This will DOUBLE all the files previously created with GeoSLAM Connect (such as .geoslam files, and .LAZ), so only do the migration if you need to further use the old projects in FARO Connect, and if you have enough disk space available!
