Version compatibility matrix
Before you install or upgrade, verify the compatibility of your Automation Anywhere Control Room and Enterprise Client versions.
- Task Bots created in earlier releases are compatible with this release.
- Task Bots and MetaBots created/saved in this release do not work if the product is downgraded to earlier versions. For example: Task Bots created in the Automation Anywhere 11.3 do not work in Automation Anywhere 10 LTS. because the 11.x obfuscation algorithm is enhanced from 10.x.
- MetaBots created in earlier versions are compatible with this version.
- For IQ Bot Version 6.0 or later to Control Room Version 11.3 or later compatibility, see the IQ Bot documentation.

| Y*, From version 10.3 (for example, 10 LTS) onwards, MetaBots are stored as Single File Format, as opposed to the old folder based structure. Therefore, MetaBots created in earlier versions cannot be directly used with the 10.3.0 Control Room. They must be converted to Single File Format first and then used in 10.3.0 version. |
| Y**, The Control Room version must be equal or higher than the Enterprise Client version. |
