    REINSTALL YOUR CAD THATS THE ONLY WAY TO GET YOU UNDO TO WORK RIGHT. I TRIED EVERYTHING AS WELL BUT NOTHING WILL RESTORE IT BUT AN REINSTALL.

    Type UNDO at the command-line and select option "One".

    Now, the U command undoes one command at a time.

     

    If this doesn't work, type UNDOCTL at the command-line, and tell us what value this is set to...

    That appears to work. But only after I typed UNDO a second time. The first time I typed UNDO and entered 1. Autocrat replied that I needed to enter a number from 1 to 3####. You know a typical Autocrat WTF answer.

    Second time around and it worked.

    Thanks.

    Hmm..

     

    How about

    UNDO

    CONTROL

    ALL

     

     

     

    What does UNDOCTL give you?

    I am so glad that I get to use software that's had the same bug for over 5 years that dirrectly effects using the software. Thank you  Autodesk.
