Navisworks Manage 2015: Unknown Version Number

Downloaded and installed the trialversion of Navisworks Manage 2015.

 

When I append a DWG file I get the "Unknown Version Number" error. I have tried the 2015, 2009, 2006 versions of DWG file and have no success. 

 

I have searched and tried all forum comments on this message without success. 

 

Yet I can open a DGN and even SLDPRT files...so why cant I open the native DWG file? Though I can open those DWG files in Tekla BIMsight!!

 

Any help on this issue would be appreciated.

Is the DWG made by plain AutoCAD or made with AutoCAD with a vertical ?
If this software is on the same computer, start AutoCAD, set your visibilty there like you want it in Navisworks (3D view, shaded with edges) and try the NWCOUT command. Then append this NWC in Navisworks.

Thanks you for your pompt response.

 

I uninstalled everything and reinstalled from scratch and it's working fine now.

 

As I recall when I installed the Inventor Professional product there was a number of conflicts noted with already installed components of Revit & Navisworks. This time I excluded Inventor from the reinstallation and all is as well.

 

Thanks again.
