Inventor 2014 problems with windows 8.1 Continue

SP1 made Inventor able to start on windows 8.1, but saving drawings in AutoCAD format is impossible. The "options" button does nothing and the "OK" button pressing results inevitably in a "Problems encountered while saving the document" error regardless of the target folder chosen or the file size.

OS: Windows 8.1 x64

Oh.. you expected it to work the first time? ha ha ha ha sucker. 

It has been PROVEN that Autodesk can't get anything 100% function the first time around. 

Someone over there has been reading too many "continuous improvement" books.

Because all of us *never* make mistakes.  Right?

I must add, that this bug applies not only to AutoCAD DWG export; as a matter of fact NO VECTOR EXPORT is possible from an Inventor 2014 drawing on a Windows 8.1 OS.

Would you be more specific about "NO VECTOR EXPORT is possible"?

Which file formats you are seeing a problem?

I believe I was able to export 2D drawing to PDF, DXF, and DXFx format.

 

BTW, I posted a possilbe workaround in the following post:

Please try and see if that works for you.

Thank you,

They hired ObamaCare programers 🙂

I ran into all sort of issues:

  1. Editing material
  2. Hole dialog
  3. etc.

Hopefully Inventor 2020 will fixes the issues 🙂

 

Environment: Windows 8.1 Ultimate x64, Inventor 2014 Pro, SP1 with Update 1
