Does you account the admin on the machine? Can you try to change the Ribbon Appearance to see if they can be displayed correctly in other styles?
Thanks Rocky,

I do reproduce the same problem here, and this happens when you have the DerivedPart_SP also registered which causes the GeneralTools gone. I find the point is that the DerivedPart_SP has a duplicate guid with GeneralTools. To fix this issue, you can modify the DerivedPart_SP project and recompile it:
1. Open the DerivedPart_SP with Visual Studio.
2. Create a guid with guidgen.exe.
3. Open the InventorStandardAddIn.vb, and find the GuidAttribute(Line6), then replace the guid with yours.
4. Open the AssemblyInfo.vb, and find the "Assembly: Guid"(Line19), replace the guid with yours.
5. Rebuild the project.
I also attach the re-compiled DerivedPart_SP.dll that you can use.
You can re-install the UserTools.msi to register the GeneralTools, and then register the newly created DerivedPart_SP.dll.
Sorry for any inconvenience. Please let me if any questions.
Thanks Rocky,
it works!!
Thanks a lot again

Hello,
I have the same problem with Inventor 2016 Professional. My ribbon don't show "Derived Part Scale and Place" into the Addin/General Tools Tab.
I have instaled UserTools and I run Install.bat fro the "DerivedPart_SP" folder inside SDK.
Can anyone help me with this?
Best regards
Danijel
Any help?

Hi Danijel,
In Inventor 2016 the Addin Manager will block an addin which is not certificated, this addin is legacy and not signed yet, so you can check the Addin Manager to see if the addin is blocked, if yes you can un-check the Block option and check the Loaded/Unloaded option:
Hope this helps.
Hi Rocky,
I have instaled SDK as you can see on the images below but some UserTools still are not loaded. I think that VB projects need recompiling as you solved from Inventor 2013 to Inventor 2014.

Hi Danijel,
Does your machine have below file in the folder?
C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v2.0.50727\RegAsm.exe
If not, can you let me have you installed any Visual Studio in the machine? You can also manually register the addin binary using below steps if you have VS in the machine:
1. Launch the command window from VS, like below command:
2. In the command enter the folder: C:\Users\Public\Documents\Autodesk\Inventor 2016\SDK\UserTools\DerivedPart_SP\Bin\.
3. Type the command "regasm /codebase DerivedPart_SP.dll".
4. Now check in Inventor if the addin is available.
Hope this helps.

Hello Rocky,
1.I have two netframeworks folders inside C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\. They are v2.0.50727 and v4.0.30319. Both of them have RegAsm.exe. I also have installed VS2010 Express but I don't see any command window inside VS instalation folder.
2. I entered into the C:\Users\Public\Documents\Autodesk\Inventor 2016\SDK\UserTools\DerivedPart_SP\Bin\ folder
3. I typed regasm /codebase DerivedPart_SP.dll but I have got the answer regasm is not recognized as an internal or external command...
By the way, I am working on the Windows 8 x64 if it is important to know.

Hi Danijel,
I could not reproduce the problem here. Did you ever re-compile the project, and if yes, can you check which .Net Framework you set to re-compile the project, if it is .Net Framework 4.0 or higher, you need to use the C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v4.0.30319\Regasm.exe to register the .Net binary.
Please let me if this helps.
Hello Rocky,
I have never recompiled any project, but I have also instaled framework v4.0.30319 which I have probably instaled with some software that I am using.
I will try what you suggest.
Thank you veru much.

Hello Rocky,
I have tried using cd\ instead c:\ and I am getting something different as the output.
Please take a look.

Hi Danijel,
Have you UAC on? Can you run the cmd.exe in Administrator right to check if it works?
Hello Rocky,
UAC is always set to "never notify" and I always run cmd it as Administrator. I tried with disabling antivirus and running commands again but still the same "error ra0000".
Best regards
Danijel
