    Question Autocad missing commands/menus.

    Registered forum members do not see this ad.

    Hi, I seem to have a strange problem with one of the autocad machines in the office. Its autocad 2006. I've tried searching the net but cant find anything other than menuload and cuiload but this fails to fix the issue.

    The user reported that short commands had stopped working - using L for line etc. It was reported that when going to tools > customize > interface brought up an error about a .cui file being missing. I checked the users profile directory and all files required by autocad were present.

    I removed and reinstalled autocad. The first time autocad is opened no errors appear and typing L starts a line, E erases stuff etc. Now if i close autocad and open it again the errors return and i get 'Unknown command' when i type L or E but typing line or erase works. I've tried restoring the machine to a few weeks back but its not solved it and reinstalling doesnt seem to solve it either.

    Does anyone have an idea whats wrong or what i might be doing wrong?

    Cheers...

    Try to save the user profile when you first start up.
    Also, try copying a pgp from a machine that is working.

    Corrupt Registry? Try a Registry cleaning program.

    Bad install? Try the Repair option.

    Hard drive in death spiral? Run a diagnostic program from the drive's manufacturer.

    Did you verify "paths" under Tools / Options / Files?
