Want to revert to Classic quiz but can't

Hello,

I have been importing quizzes/exams from a previous semester into my current semester which I then edit or update rather than starting from scratch. So far I have imported 2 exams but when I went to import the 3rd it showed up differently and after some digging I can see it is a 'New' Quiz rather than classic. I was perfectly happy with Classic quiz but wasn't able to go back to it. I went back to my previous semester's Canvas course and found that *all* the exams have now been changed to 'New' quizzes and can't be altered to Classic, so no matter what I do I will be importing New quizzes. Is there a way around this?

Hope this helps! Kona
