When you upgrade there is at least some most important data you can restore, and this is sprite references.
In order to do that click restore serialization in SDFImage context menu
SDF Image
properties like SDF Multiplier, Render SDF Texture, Render Only SDF Texture, Sprite (restorable with context menu)SDF Image
: Width of Shadow and Main layers, Shadow Offset.
