A .pln file is definitely not from QCAD (also not an older version).
QCAD has been using DXF since version 1 and DXF or DWG since version 3.

It looks like you have associated .pln files with the QCAD application. This does not make them QCAD files. You can associate any file type with any application. These are definitely not QCAD files.
