Huge Profile for AutoDesk programs

Hi-

 

 

I'm new to posting and sort of new to a University Lab position. 

 

I was told that this is how to create an image:

 

Create a local admin account

Install Programs and make changes to settings (desktop, etc) under this account

Copy the profile to "Default User" profile

Run sysprep

 

My problem is that I install the Autodesk Programs (Civil 3D, Revit, etc).  I install the programs, and the profile is HUGE-On the order of 2 GB. 

 

It takes an unreasonable amount of time to transfer this default profile to each student's profile. 

 

And it will fill up the harddrive with 40+ students potentially using the same computer...

 

Does anybody know how to fix this-I could not be alone in experiencing this problem. 

 

 

Thanks so much,

 

Fred

Please refer to the installation docs  to configure the support content paths to alternate location to reduce the profile size.
