I emailed myself the .project file last used to go online with my processor.
I get the Warning "Application is currently in run mode… no matching compile information, this application needs to be replaced.
Is there some selection in the codesys to not be so strict on going online?
I know this is the matching program.
If I were on my other laptop I would be able to go online.
running codesys V3.5 SP19 Patch 7
Thank you for your help!
Hi Eddie,
You may look at using the source download function in CODESYS. This will download a project archive file to the plc that can be ‘uploaded’ from the device later. This does require extra memory and you may also consider adding a password to the project. You can set this up to updated the project archive whenever a change to the controller is made.
It also looks like you may be able to email yourself a project archive, rather than the .project file. I haven’t tried this but saw this note on CODESYS Forge :

Hope this helps!
Thank you Mike,
I will give the archive a try first.
When you compile a project file, it also generates a .compileinfo file in the same folder as the project file. Send this file from your development PC to the new PC and put it in the same folder as your project file. I believe this is the “matching compile info” the message refers to. If its checksum matches the checksum in the controller, you should be able to go online without re-download.
Thank you Adam
I will give this a try as well.
Both solutions worked, I tried to select both as a solution.
Thank you @MikePsaltis and @AdamReeve
