Introduction
Autodesk® Revit® files are vital for architects, engineers, and designers working on complex projects.

The Problem
Revit files are heavily dependent on the version in which they have been saved. When attempting to open a Revit file in a different version, users are often confronted with notifications informing them about the version mismatch. This can lead to wasted time and frustration as users try to determine the correct Revit version to open the file.
Additionally, the default Revit version that opens when a user double-clicks a Revit file in the file explorer is the most recent version installed on their system. When the version in which the file was saved is not identified in the file name, selecting the right Revit version becomes a guessing game.

The Solution: File Version Checker 2023
File Version Checker is a lightweight application that acts as the default application for Revit files. When a user opens a Revit file through their system's file explorer, the plugin reads the basic file information to determine the exact Revit version in which it was saved. It also scans the user's Revit install location to identify the available Revit versions on their system.
If the user has the same version of Revit in which the file was saved, the File Version Checker presents a convenient "open" button, eliminating the need for guesswork. However, if the user has newer versions of Revit installed, they are also given the opportunity to upgrade the file to the Revit version of their choice, ensuring seamless compatibility.
