Opening an AutoCAD SV file can be done in a few simple steps. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of opening an AutoCAD SV file and provide you with some helpful tips along the way.
Let’s get started!
Step 1: Launch AutoCAD
To open an AutoCAD SV file, you first need to launch the AutoCAD software on your computer. Locate the AutoCAD icon on your desktop or in your start menu and double-click it to open the program.
Step 2: Navigate to the File Menu
Once you have launched AutoCAD, navigate to the File menu located at the top left corner of the program window. Click on the File menu to reveal a dropdown list of options.
Step 3: Select “Open”
From the dropdown list of options in the File menu, select “Open”. This will open a new dialog box that allows you to browse and select the AutoCAD SV file that you want to open.

Tips:
- If you can’t find your SV file, try using the search feature in the “Open” dialog box. Simply type in the name of your file or a keyword related to it, and AutoCAD will search for it in the selected folder.
