Design review 2013 will not open dwg files anymore

[Anonymous]

Good morning,

2 days ago I switched to AutoCad LT from inventer (long story). It appears that design review no longer works for me as it does nothing when I try to open up DWG files. I get no error message either.

I have updated trueview, reinstalled both deisgn review and true view to no avail.

Are there any issues between LT and these applications I am not aware of?

Any help would be great

thanks in advance

Have you checked that for this "current user" the necessary registry keys exists under the HKEY_CURRENT_USER branch ?

Yes, all the registry entries are as outlined in this thread. No errors, and dwg won't open. Little blue wheel spins for a moment and then nothing. If I run as administrator it works.

[EDIT] to clarify, if I 'run as' a local admin who has the registry information entered in their current user key then I can open DWG files. If I run as a standard user who has the information under current user, not DWG files.
