System crash on .idw open

I keep trying to open an .idw using Iv2013 that was done on Iv2012. I defered updates and it opens but then when I go to Tools>drawing settings to change it back it keeps crashing.

 

IV2013/Vault Collaboration 2013

Thanks in advance.

I would try opening the IAM or IPT files that are included in the IDW and do a rebuild and save of them. Sounds like something could be wrong with the related files.

 

If they are fine, then the IDW file as become corrupt. You might be able to restore from the Old-Versions directory or a backup device.

Just insert the picture rather than attaching it as a file
