Revit Version Detector | RVT & RFA File Version Checker
Revit Version Detector is a lightweight, high-efficiency shell extension designed to eliminate version incompatibility issues. Integrated directly into your Windows right-click context menu, this tool reads critical file metadata instantly without launching Autodesk Revit. Prevent accidental model upgrades, avoid software hangs, and streamline your BIM workflows.
Key Features
1. Instant Version Identification
Stop triggering time-consuming model upgrades by mistake. Right-click any .rvt or .rfa file to instantly check its specific Revit creation year, ensuring you always launch the correct software version.
2. Worksharing Status Detection
Quickly determine if a project file is a Workshared model (Central or Local). This feature is essential for auditing team files or managing directories without the overhead of opening the software.
3. Linked Files & Dependencies Overview
Understand external file dependencies before opening the main project. View a comprehensive list of linked Revit models to identify missing or misdirected paths early and prevent downstream coordination errors.
Runs entirely within the Windows File Explorer shell context menu. No Revit startup lag, no loading screens, and no tedious dialog boxes. It is the ultimate tool for BIM managers and CAD administrators.
