Question:
I have a drawing that is frequently crashing or won’t open in AutoCAD.
Answer:
Access the recover command from the Application > Drawing Utilities menu.
There are two commands:
- Recover, does a health check on the drawing file, fixes any problems and then opens the file.
- Recover with Xrefs, also checks the file, but also checks and fixes linked external reference files as well!
