I lost all of the Short Key Commands I got a Message Unknown Command Press F1 4help

[JCcad]

Hi,

I hope some one can help me. I'm an Autocad 2004 user and I was working in a auto cad drawing and I wanted to install a new hatch file and now I cannot get any of my short key commands, Z zoom, Line, Circle, Etc. every time that I enter a command I get a message saying Unknown command Press F1 for help.

I will really appreciate your input on how to get the commands files to work again

!

At the command line type

(findfile "acad.pgp")

hit enter.

 

Does it return a path to it? If no, use search in windows file explorer to locate which folder it is in.

 

Then go to Option in Autocad, Files, support file search path, confirm that that path is in there, if not pick add, then browse, and browse to that folder. Hit OK to exit, you should be good to go, if not try REINIT, pick PGP file, OK.

 

If the original search says it found it then try DEMANDLOAD and set it to 3. (you type that at the command line and hit enter, then 3, enter. Just in case you are really new to the program.)

I was able to locate the file now by serching using the Option in Autocad. I reinserted the path and now its Working Fine:D

 

Thanks alot for your help and letting me know the name of the file to search for.
