Reference Attachment Issue (ProjectWise file explorer)

Unable to attach a reference file to dwg when selecting the 'Attach DWG reference from ProjectWise' button through the ProjectWise module in AutoCAD C3D.  The File Explorer window opens my local PC and doesn't open to my ProjectWise environment.  However, selecting 'New Document', 'Open document from ProjectWise' or 'Save document to ProjectWise' buttons open the 'File Explorer' window in my ProjectWise environment.

For anyone still interested. I had the same problem. I had to right click the file>Open with>Browse>and ensure I was opening with a ProjectWise Integrated AutoCAD. Make sure the tick box is selected to 'Always use this program'.

I've had users have this same problem and 9 times out of 10, they forgot to save the file into PW before adding XREFs. The file needs to be saved out to PW before the integration can work.
