I'm having an issue in Inventor Nastran where I can't open any dialogue boxes to edit or create anything. I was using 2024.3 when this initially happened. I updated to 2025 and that appeared to fix the problem, except now 2025 is doing the same thing. Has anyone else experienced this, and if so, is there a fix? Right now the software is useless as I can't edit or create any analyses.

See this article: Dialog window does not appear when a command is given in Inventor Nastran
What happens is that Windows "shows" the dialog at some large negative coordinate that places it off the screen. You might be able to hold the Shift+Windows keys and press the left or right arrow keys on the keyboard multiple times to get the window to move to the current display. If the location is so far off your screen that Windows does not know what to do, then you need to edit the registry. These locations in the registry are for many of the dialog. (Other dialogs are detailed in the article.)
