Drawing recovery stuck

[Anonymous]

Hi-

Looking for some ideas, I have a large xref and all of a sudden it won't open. I recieve the error that it is corrupted and need to run recovery & audit on it. No matter what version of CADD I try it gets stuck in the audit Pass 2. Of course project is due Monday. Anyone have any ideas how to recover?

That file works thank you so much! How did you get it to open before I posted I tried opening in 2016 but it would just hang up and not open?

It's great that you fixed their drawing but you didn't explain HOW you fixed it. I have the same issue. Every time I run recover, the drawing(s) hang up

I have same problem when I run the audit command. Drawing hangs on second pass and I have to CTRL/ALT/DELETE to hard stop ACAD

Hi,

>> Every time I run recover, the drawing(s) hang up

Please upload your dwg-file + let us know which version of AutoCAD you are using (and in case you have applications on top of AutoCAD running), so we can try to get it solved.
