AutoCAD 2015/2016 Freezing Up…
We had couple of customers calling about their AutoCAD’s freezing up at multiple times randomly during the day; after trying multiples things, here are the changes we did to make it work: 1. Autodesk software needs full permission to: Registry Entries: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\AUTODESK HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\AUTODESK Folders: The folder the program was installed in, such as: C:\program files\Autodesk\AutoCAD 201x (for example) Windows 7 / Windows 8 / Windows 10: C:\Users\All Users\Autodesk C:\Users\\AppData\Local\Autodesk C:\Users\\AppData\Roaming\Autodesk C:\Program Files\Common Files\Autodesk Shared 2. Disable “Show Home Base on Startup” in the Registry Editor: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Autodesk\DirectConnect\RegistryVersion20.0\System\Preferences\File Look for: ShowHomeBaseOnStartup and change it to cero (0)
