Are you saying you can't IMPORT CAD or LINK CAD (via Insert Tab)?

Are you trying to open AutoCAD files in Revit? You won't be able to open a .DWG extension into Revit only those files are openable in Revit = RTE, RVT, RFA and RFT files. As mentioned by @barthbradley, either you import or Link cad into Revit. Thanks

Hi @kim.sran

 

Also if you are just missing the template list on the revit home screen you can add them back there by using the instructions on this page:

Hi @Anonymous

 

Can you try a Revit repair and see if this helps?
