There is an autocad user in our building who used to be able to open ACAD files from the file menu within the program. It used to then give a window where one could browse for the file...the same as using Open from any other program like Word or Excel. However recently, when she goes to File > Open, it expects her to type the file path/name down at the bottom in the command window. How does she get the window back that allows her to browse for a file?
Thanks
 
She needs to set the FILEDIA system variable back to "1", by doing just that, typing "filedia" then "1".
