How do I veiw a .rfa file? I cannot install the trial version of Revit

[Anonymous]

I have an .rfa file that I ultimately wanted to pull dimensional information from.  I do not have access to Revit nor can I successfully install the free trial (get an "internal error").  The file came from the website of an uncooperative 3rd party whose equipment I need to interface with for the end user.

Before going down the rabbit hole of trouble shooting the install, I want to view what exactly I'm trying to access to see if it's even worth all the bother.

Is there any way to view an .rfa file?

Upload it to https://viewer.autodesk.com/ and view online.

Thank you, I tried this site & it says "Unsupported file type".  Can you confirm that site views .rfa files?  Perhaps I downloaded a dude of a file to begin with? 

Also, here is the file to begin with if any in the Autodesk Community can open?

Having trouble uploading the file

Can't do it, that would have been too easy!

Sorry RFA is not supported.  You may want to download Revit trial and use it to view RFA for free.

As the install is not working, I'm trying to skip that step for now.  Any advice on to how to upload a file in this forum?

Maybe if I zip it?

Cool, cool!  Would love a screen shot of this.  Or if anyone would be so kind to convert to an .sat file?

Awesome! Thank you! This is exactly what I needed. If you ever need a Solidworks file converted, hit me up!!
