My processed .dwg file stopped opening since yesterday. Now when I try to open it see Non Autodesk DWG file. I'm using AutoCAD 2016 on Windows 8.1 x64. I hope someone could assist.

Did you or someone else open the drawing in an AutoCAD clone such as Draftsight or Bricscad then save it?

Is there a .BAK file available?

Did you try using the RECOVER command?
