roshen_aliary Posted March 16, 2017 Posted March 16, 2017 Hi Everyone, I am a new Revit user and when I try to open a file, this message pop-up on my screen, can anyone please tell me what is the problem? Thanks in advance! Quote
tzframpton Posted March 16, 2017 Posted March 16, 2017 I'm assuming you are double-clicking the Revit model. This is typically seen as a huge no-no. You must always go through the Open dialog box because Revit models are usually always a Workshared file, therefore the files you receive will be a Central Model. The Open dialog has steps to open these files correctly, in which you would be bypassing when you simply double-click the file in Windows Explorer. You will have to become familiar with Worksharing, Central Models, and Local Copies: https://knowledge.autodesk.com/support/revit-products/learn-explore/caas/CloudHelp/cloudhelp/2017/ENU/Revit-Collaborate/files/GUID-3896288A-0729-4C41-A67D-4FA970DF3E43-htm.html and https://knowledge.autodesk.com/support/revit-products/learn-explore/caas/CloudHelp/cloudhelp/2014/ENU/Revit/files/GUID-71B6BE0F-019B-45B3-B88C-F1ABBAFA66AE-htm.html -TZ Quote
