Opening IFC model direct in Trimble Connect for desktop v1.7.1.140 not possible

    With the last update opening a IFC model direct in Trimble Connect for desktop v1.7.1.140 is not possible. When I open direct a IFC model this doesn't work anymore. I see that Trimble connect starts, but not opens. The only way is to make a project. Put the IFC file inside this project and then open. In the earlier version this worked fine, but this works not good. In the earlier version a project was automatically made
    I made a video as attachment and hopefully you can do something with this info

    Answer: clear the old model cache

     

    The project data can be found in the following location: 

    C:\Users\<user name>\AppData\Local\Trimble\Trimble Connect

    Note that after deleting the cache, you will not be able to restore any projects that are not upsync to TC server.

    Same issue here - installed latest PC client update - fixed.

    If TC Connect is the default app then IFC will can be opened in a two clicks without needing to create a project.
