Merging DWFs on 64bit WIndows

On our 32bit Windows machines it's possible to select multiple DWF files, right-click and merge them but on 64bit Windows, no such context menu option is available. Is this standard behaviour for 64bit machines and is it possible to get the right-click system to work?

Thank you for your question.

 

Autodesk Design Review currently does not support this functionality on 64 bit systems. Your request has been added to the Feature Request System (ADRPO-586) and it will be considered for possible inclusion in future releases.

 

Please let me know if I can be of any further assistance.

Almost a month later... Any news on this matter? Are Autodesk going to wait for a new version or will it be patchable?

 

It is kinda lame to have to go to a old PC in the office to merge dwf's.

Thanks again for the feedback.  We don't have a fix available for this request.  We may consider this for the future release.

I know it is a work around, but...

 

You can open a file in Design Review, then drag and drop other files into the open file, then save/saveas

@jose.almeida Never implemented.
Also, ADR development stopped in the year 2016.

Check the file associations for DWF files on the 64-bit machine. Right-click on a DWF file, select "Open with," and then "Choose another app" to see if there are any alternative programs listed that may offer the merge functionality. You can also check bkmenu the "Always use this app to open .dwf files" option to ensure that the selected program becomes the default for opening DWF files.
