Find the location to where the *.k2proj files are saved in your environment. The default directory is:
C:Users[Administrator User]DocumentsK2Studio
Or make sure you have the *.k2proj file accessible which contains the the workflow *.kprx file.
How-to Steps
1. Navigate to the directory where the *.k2proj is located. You should see a *.k2proj file and a number of *.kprx files depending on the amount of processes tied to the original project.
2. Copy the necessary *.kprx file that you want to duplicate and paste the copy to the desktop or other accessible location.
3. Open K2 Studio and create a new K2 Project.
4. In the Solution Explorer to the left, right click the project name and select 'Add > Existing project item'.
