Hello All,
I try to open catia file with NX 10 but there is a warning popped up "There are no licenses available for NX_CATIAV5 translator."
Do i need to purchase this license? do you know how much cost for this add on?

Thank you.

No, you do not need to purchase them. It could be that someone in your company is utilizing it.
You can also access it from your Windows start menu.

Here's the quick way to get it working:
Close NX. Windows start menu, choose "settings"; search for "environment" in the "find a setting" box. Pick "edit environment variables for your account"; the environment variable dialog will open. The top 1/2 of the dialog will be for user variables, hit the "new..." button, enter UGII_JAVA_HOME for the name and use browse directory to find your java directory (for me it is "C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.8.0_211"; the last bit will depend on the version you have installed). OK the dialogs and restart NX.

How big is this Catia file (in bytes) ?
I have never needed to do a Catia translation but I see we have a choice of translating two different versions. Obviously make sure you are utilizing the correct version.
