The Batch Recover command can be used to run the AutoCAD RECOVER command over a specified Directory (and optionally Sub-Directories) of drawings. This may be required where AutoCAD detects that a drawing contains corrupted information and will not open the drawing in the normal manner. The RECOVER command will attempt to fix the damaged drawing file.

The Batch Recover command prompts for the location of the Directory containing the drawing files to be recovered. Optionally, Sub-Directories of the specified folder can also be included.If only certain files within the specified folder need to be recovered, then the Select All Files checkbox can be un-ticked and the required dwg files selected manually.
