DataNumen has released DataNumen DWG Recovery, a new Windows application that repairs corrupted or damaged DWG files created by AutoCAD, AutoCAD LT, and similar software products. The software recovers files in all formats from AutoCAD Release 2.5 through 2014.

The solution can fix more than 50 types of objects in DWG files, including block, point, line, arc, circle, and more, and can recover deleted objects in DWG files. In addition to writing recovered files in drawing (DWG) format, DataNumen DWG Recovery can also create drawing exchange format (DXF) files, allowing recovered files to be used in AutoCAD as well as third-party applications that use AutoCAD files.

The demo version of the software will scan the damaged DWG files and identify exactly the information that it can recover. Before buying the DWG recovery program, users will be able to view all of the recovered contents in a preview window, and know exactly how successful their data recovery efforts will be when they install the full version of the application.

Registered users can run the software in batch mode to fix any number of damaged DWG files. It is fully integrated with the Windows Explorer context (right-click) menu, allowing AutoCAD users to initiate the repair process quickly. Drag and drop operations are also supported.
