Solution:
Windows 7, Windows 8 and Windows 10
- Check if the current profile contains the following path:
"C:\Users\<user>\Appdata\Roaming\Autodesk\AutoCAD 20xx\Rxx.x\enu\Support"
- Copy the contents of the following folders to this folder:
"C:\Program files\Autodesk\AutoCAD 20xx\userdatacache\support" en
"C:\Program Files\Autodesk\AutoCAD 20xx\UserDataCache\en-us\Support"
- Restart AutoCAD
If these actions do not have a positive result:
- Windows Start -> AutoCAD 20xx -> Reset settings To Default
- Choose 'Reset Custom Settings'
This function will reset AutoCAD to its default setting and installation with the folders correctly filled.
