AutoCAD 2013 Fatal Error Message

[dgward]

Windows 7 did an automatic update and now when I start AutoCad 2013 it starts and goes right to an FATAL ERROR: Unhandled Access Violation Writing 0x006c Exception at eae5644bh.

I have tried a restore point before the updates but windows fail to complete the restore point.

Any help would be greatful.

I would try a reset of AutoCAD.

Other than that, I think an uninstall/reinstall of it maybe the only choice at some point.

David,

While waiting for a reply I Uninstalled all the windows updates.
This still did not fix the problem so I did a Restore Point that
had been created last week. This fixed the problems with AutoCAD.

Then I installed the Windows Updates one at a time (a total of
18) and tested AutoCAD after each install. The problem with the
Fatal Error went away.

Conclusion is not to leave AutoCAD up and running when the auto
updates occur in the middle of the night.
