I have an assembly that I create a shrinkwrap from. Then I export the shrinkwrap to a STP as well as a Parasolid. There are no errors or anything at this step. Both exported files are approximately 13Megs. When I try to import back into inventor to verify the files, it literally just sits there at 95%. I have tried opening a part and then do the import command. I have tried to open the file from file open command. I have tried to import into an assembly. They all hang at the same point. I even tried to just export from the assembly file, bypassing the shrinkwrap and still the same result. Am I missing a setting or something? When I did this in the past it worked flawlessly.

Both files open fine here (2017).
Try a simple cube first.
If that works, then try a simple assembly with one cube and one cylinder.
If neither of these test work - then we have narrowed down the problem.
Can you post screen shot of your Import Options?
Are you opening the file from a different folder location than the original files?
Also, by chance I rebooted my computer and on the attempt after rebooting the file opened significantly faster. (I would guess less than 15 seconds vs 1.5 minutes.)
Have you installed Update Hotfix 1?
Looks like I had some paths going to the server, this was causing the bottleneck. Once I adjusted file paths to be local on the machine, opened up real quick.
