    AutoCAD MEP 2013 install messes up 2010

    We have been using AutoCAD MEP 2010 for a couple years now. Today I installed 2013 MEP on my machine. 2013 opens up just

    fine.

    When I go back to 2010, I get the attached 2 error messages when I exit AutoCAD.

     

    I am hesitant to do a repair, because we have 2010 tweaked just right.

     

    Anyone with any suggestions?

    Hi genem,

     

    I am not sure why 2013 installation would affect your 2010. The problem can be User Profile related. I suggest that you Create a New User account with Admin privileges and launch 2010.  After a successful lauch, log back in as the other User and try again.

     

    Hope this helps.

    I went ahead and did a repair on 2010, and it is fine.

    I have not been back to 2013 since, so I am not sure if the problem will come up again or not.

    That's great Repair did the trick.

     

    When you lauch 2013, I am hoping it keeps away from your 2010. If you get an error, you can try my above suggestion.

     

    I really want to know what happens, so please let me know.

    We are having the same issue in our office as well. We recently updated from MEP 2012 to 2013 and get two error messages when exiting 2012. (See attached image) Our machines are all running Windows 7 Professional 64bit.
