    Missing Express Tools

    Installed AutoCad 2012 (64bit) on a windows 7 machine with UAC activated. The computer is connected to a 2008R2 domain. I installed AutoCad on the user account (non-admin) using UAC with my account (admin). When I launch Autocad with the user account, Express Tools tab isn't there and I cannot add it manually. When I start Autocad with UAC (admin), the tab is there.

     

    I gave him full rights on:

    • C:\ProgramData\Autodesk
    • C:\Program Files\Autodesk

    whitout success.

     

    what am I missing?

    At the command line, type EXPRESSTOOLS, if it's there it will load.

    got it (in an uncool way)

     

    I added the user as "local admin", reinstalled Autocad, and now it's there. :smileysad:
