Orcad Capture 17.2 has netlist option for "Create or Update PCB Editor Board (Netrev)" greyed out and if I try to import a netlist into ORCAD PCB I get E- Unable to start program; netrev.

I can generate a netlist but  Create or Update PCB Editor Board (Netrev) is greyed out so I can't go directly to a board. I also cannot import a created netlist into Orcad PCB because I get an error  E- Unable to start program; netrev. This all worked correctly until Capture locked up on me yesterday and I had to stop it via windows. I tried to locate netrev.exe on my computer and it is not there. Capture software version is 17.2-2016 S032  (3685379) Windows SPB 64-bit edition . PCB software version is 17.2-2016 S032 [1/8/2018]  Windows SPB 64-bit edition.  Could a corrupted file cause this and should there be a copy of netrev.exe on my computer?
