I have never had any issues opening UG files, but today I tried to open a UG Assembly and recieved this message. " could not import a compressed ug file" Any way around this??
I am running SW 2012 SP2

The Unigraphics translator imports the Parasolid information of a Unigraphics® part or assembly into a SolidWorks part or assembly document. Only the Parasolid information is extracted, not the proprietary feature information of a Unigraphics part.
You can import Unigraphics compressed part files.
What version of UG is the file? Maybe it is a newer version then SW can open.

It may be missing references. If you open the assembly in the UG viewer are all of the pieces there?
