MSCRMWorkflowUtilities import

I have downloaded the MSCRMWorkflowUtilities from this website archive.codeplex.com but get an error when importing it into our CRM 2015 on premise application, "Invalid Solution".  What do I do?

    Ok, codeplex solution is not getting updates, archived solution only works for 2011/2013 versions. I see issues reported there for 2015.

    Github solution is latest & works in all latest versions (both online & onprem). May be SetStateRequest is deprecated & this cascading support is removed on new workflow utilities versions. But it’s worth to create a new GitHub issue for such new feature requests (like Jason mentioned there). Don’t forget to donate :)

    If you want to build such functionality yourself, you can develop custom workflow activity (similar to plugin), same can be used in UI workflows. You can fork the github if you want to contribute to the source code.

    Finally, email you are getting from this forum is system generated & it goes to the email you used while registering. You can change there.

    Thanks for responding Radu, I went to the website you suggested but I'm not sure this is what I am looking for.  I need the SetStatus cascading feature to deactivate a record and all of it's children.

    Another question might be, how do I bring this function into my application?  I can't find anything in what I had downloaded that describes how to do it properly except for one file that I found that said to import it like a solution, but there is no solution file in it. 

    Thanks for your help.

    Can you see if the version from jlattimer.blogspot.com/.../updated-crm-workflow-utilities.html works?
