I use 2013. The xref pallet was docked but has disappeared. Also, when I type 'xref' at the command line, the xref dialog box does not appear. How do I get them back?

Thanks jburris, in one workspace the palette was Off and in another the location was set to Right. Set them both to On and Floating and I have my dialog box back.
Thanks again,
What finally worked for me was to create a new workspace from the default 2D Drafting and Annotation space I was using by hitting Save As, then switch back to the default space. The workspace I created still has the missing XREF manager, but that's okay, I can just delete it now. Weird bug.
2016 Autocad MEP I have lost the xref pallet. Same as below I type in XREF and is does not come up. I turn it off and on But I dont see it anywhere. any other ideas?
Welcome to the community!
Did you try using the CUI (Customize User Interface) command, and changing the orientation of the External References palette in the current Workspace, as noted above? Also make certain that the Show property is set to Yes.
The name of your current Workspace will be different that shown below; select the one that has " (current)" appended to the end of the name.
To David Koch 4 years or so later THANK YOU! (11PM with deadline tomorrow & xref pallette disappeared...It's a little different in 2017 but it worked.
thank you. that was the most reasonable solution I found with excellent presentation. thank you for the time and effort your put. very much appreciated. I had it on the civil but as I switched to map it would disappear on my but now I got it back thank you for your nicely done resolutions. bravo
Fantastic!! It is almost 2020, and I am using 2018 version, and yet it still works!!
Thank you
I'm using 2020 and this is still a problem. I cannot believe that the xref manager can be set to be invisible. What the actual **** Autodesk. The amount of productivity I loose to stupid stupid things like this is unreal.
Thank you for posting this solution, you've made my day a lot better.
If you have lost the pallet between two monitors, unplug the secondary monitor where the pallet was lost (the monitor not showing your CAD file). The pallet will appear. Plug the secondary monitor back in. Fix time: 10 seconds.
quick question:
structural cadworks doesn't show the xref palet
any sugestions?
I tried this & when I hit the 'Accept" button, I again got the "Fatal Error" message. Is the fact that I am using the 2912 LT version & have Windows 11 the problem?

LT2012 in Win11? I suspect it is so, you are two Windows versions beyond the ones LT2012 is designed to run in
