Shahen,
   Just to be entirely clear, the steps you should follow at that point are:

1. open TRNBuild
2. select File: Import Trnsys3D file...
3. click the arrow button in the field in the upper left of the window 
and browse to find untitled.idf (click ok)
4. click the radio button at the right hand side of the window to 
indicate whether the building is in the northern or southern hemisphere.
5. click the button next to "import"

when I try your file, I am able to import it. If you aren't, I would 
recommend that you look at the permissions on your \Trnsys17 directory 
and make sure that you have administrator level access to the entire 
directory. I wonder if there is a DLL being called that won't run due to 
a file permissions problem.
Kind regards,
  David
