HELP! File wont open :(

Please can someone give me an easy fix, I found the forum that would help me but it is so long and convoluted and I dont want to mess with the files on my computer.

 

I can open the dwg. from AutoCAD itself but when I try to open with the dwg launcher I get this message telling me windows "cannot find *yada yada yada* make sure you typed the name correctly". 

 

I just downloaded the new version of AutoCAD a couple of weeks ago and I am assuming this is why. Everytime I redownload it SOMETHING NEW IS WRONG and it is verrrrry frustrating. I am constantly running an app to scan for problems but nothing is helping. Please help.

new version? Your screenshot shows an older 2021 version of AutoCAD trying to open. AND the files' icon is blank: that means Windows does not have a program assigned to any file in that folder of yours.

Do any or all of these https://knowledge.autodesk.com/support/autocad/troubleshooting/caas/sfdcarticles/sfdcarticles/Double...
then this if needed https://knowledge.autodesk.com/support/autocad/troubleshooting/caas/sfdcarticles/sfdcarticles/Error-...

Do yourself a huge favor and turn on file extensions too https://www.howtogeek.com/205086/beginner-how-to-make-windows-show-file-extensions/
