You may have updated to the prerelease and then went back to a prior version.

Select File >> Open Chartbook. Do you see any chartbooks that have backup2092 in the name? If so, those are the ones you want to open. More information is in this thread here:

Version 2093: New Chartbook Format, Better Data Management in Sub Instances, Other

I'm unable to use imported chartbooks/templates. I've tried installing different versions of the Software but they still won't work. See below for error message:
