Why does Plants vs Zombies say 'Invalid File Version'?
Dude, just update or reinstall the game. That error's like the game's way of saying it's confused because it's trying to read a book in a language it doesn't understand. Get it the right version, and you're golden.

Hot take: Maybe it's just telling you to take a break. Seriously, though, files get weird sometimes. A fresh install fixes most tech tantrums.
It's like trying to fit a square peg in a round hole. The game just can't deal with files from a different version. Updating or reinstalling should square you away!
The 'Invalid File Version' error in Plants vs Zombies usually means there's a mismatch between the game files and the version of the game you're trying to play. This can happen if the game has been updated but not all the files were correctly updated, or if you've got a corrupted file somehow. Try updating the game or reinstalling to get all the right files in order.
