A win32 Trojan virus deleted and corrupted some of my files including AutoCAD dwg files. Is there an AutoCAD dwg fix program that can recover and repair my dwg files? I have a Windows 7 64 bit OS and AutoCAD 2013. Thanks.
Hi, John.
There is a good tool called the Recovery Toolbox for dwg but the problem is it works for AutoCAD 2000-2011. But as you have AutoCAD 2013 you can try with the Drawing Recovery Manager.
You can open it by click on the Application button and choosing Drawing Utilities – Open the Drawing Recovery Manager as in the photo below.
All drawings that can be restored from the system failure are listed under Backup Files as in the next photo below.
Under Backup Files, double-click a drawing node to list all available drawing and backup files.
Then, double-click a file to open it.
If it is possible if the drawing file is damaged, the drawing will automatically be repaired.
More details about this tool you can read on this link: http://www.2dprofessor.com/autocad-2013-drawing-recovery-manager.html
