Make revit 2019 default

Anonymous — Wed, 08 Apr 2020 08:44:36 GMT

I have both Revit 2019 and Revit 2020 on my computer. I want to make 2019 default, because most revit models are in this format. I can't seem to do this?

Thanks

When you open a revit file by double clicking it, it will always open in the version used in the last session.

It is always recommended to open Revit first (whichever version you desire), then from Revit, open the file.

I have to open Revit first, because it always chooses 2020. And the next time, it chooses 2020 anyway (if I run from Explorer, which I like to do)..
