-lost the command line window (I know I should never have closed it) It
said that I could restore it by Shift + 9 but this doesn't work. Any ideas?

Thanks,

There is no UI or shortcut keys to turn this back on. You will have to edit
your registry to turn this back on.

Please note that the registry is where all your windows settings are. If
you are not comfortable working with the registry, I would recommend you do
not do this. If you try this, back up your registry first and only change
this one entry.

Steps to resolve your issue:
1) start --> Run --> Type in "regedit"
2) go to the following Key: HKEY_USERS and open this.
3) There will be a list of entries, you will have to break open each one of
these. After opening one, click on software, then click on Autodesk. If
you do not see Autodesk or after you open Autodesk you do not see Autodesk
DWG Viewer move on to the next node. I found mine at
"HKEY_USERS\S-1-5-21-1935655697-515967899-682003330-68500"
4) After you find Autodesk DWG Viewer node, drill down to
"\R2\DWGV-4001:409\Profiles\<>\General"
5) find the key named "CLIInit" and change the value to 1.
6) Close the registry editor and restart DWG Viewer

CTRL+9 will restore the missing prompt window.
