There should be an internal reason of this decision but it does not seem reasonable for a customer viewpoint. An expert ST staff could easily done this for all of us. Anyway, at least we have an example.

Thanks for your time...

Hello @yilmazkircicek ,

I've normally opened H74_Discovery_STM32H745I-DISCO_STM32H745XIH_Board_AllConfig.ioc as shown in this screenshot:

How did you download that file? please download the all package from github:

Unzip the package and open the ioc file with the latest version of CubeMx (the latest version is 6.14)

Some new MCU families do include .ioc files.  The internal reason is that many STM32 product families and their examples have were released long ago, before the CubeMX stabilized. Also, updates and development of CubeMX would require resources for regression testing of these examples. The "expert staff" has probably other important things to do ))

The .ioc files for many ST boards are available here. Though these .ioc's are not coupled with specific functional example code. Al least, this is something to start from.

Thanks for the link, I have tried "H74_Discovery_STM32H745I-DISCO_STM32H745XIH_Board_AllConfig.ioc" and here is the result; a perfect forward and backward compatibility :)

What is your CubeMX version? I have 6.11.1 here, it opens this ioc file without issues.

@KDJEM.1 @mƎALLEm   ? Why CubeMX 6.14 fails to open .ioc files from github that open successfully with v. 6.11.1 ?@
