Changing Units - Part Disappearing Afterwards

I have been working with some 3D scans that were in a IGS format that someone back in 2011 converted it to a solidworks file. I recently had a co-worker take the Solidworks file and save it as a ProE PRT file format BUT it’s in metric, when I change the units, the part just disappears.

How do I change the units and the part does not disappear?

Yep, same issue. Have the Solidworks users export the file as something else (STEP, IGES, etc.), but NOT as a Pro/e part.
