Why do I have to resent settings to default everytime i open

Whenever I open AutoCad this appears aswell.

 

An executable file was found outside of the specified trusted locations.

What do you want to do?

 

C:/Users/reckless/documents/acad.LSP

 

Make sure that this file comes from a trusted source and does not contain malicious code. 

 

 

then the same message with this appears.

 

C:/users/reckless/appdata/roaming/autodesk/autocad2014/r19.1/enu/acadappp.lsp

It's a new security feature.  You need to add C:/users/reckless/appdata/roaming/autodesk/autocad

2014/r19.1/enu/ to your Trusted Locations.

Go to OPTIONS > Files tab > Trusted Locations (third down) and Add the location.

 

 

*EDIT:  Very good point from Alfred below -- make sure it's not a virus first before adding it to the Trusted Locations

Hi,

 

>> C:/Users/reckless/documents/acad.LSP

That path is really ununsual for an ACAD.LSP file

IMPORTANT: first make sure it's not a virus, not just add the path because it's the simliest option!

Thanks for getting back to me. 

 

However when i press the options button autocad crashes.

 

I then restarted Autocad from default settings and the option button decided to worked. I pasted in C:/Users/Reckless/Documents/acad.LSP

 

When i restarted AutoCad with out default settings the same message still came up, and i still had the problem with the Workspace Paperspace tabs.

 

I just want to know how to get autocad to stay in the default settings with out me having to open it like that each time. It runs fine when i open it with default settings.

A fuller description of what you call "default settings", "pasted in C:/Users/Reckless/Documents/acad.LSP", and "Workspace Paperspace tabs" might help - this can mean different things to different people, so clarity is key to getting a good, clear answer.

 

Crashing when trying to open the Options dialog is a good sign the installation didn't complete properly.  This could be a matter of user rights, UAC settings, or anti-virus getting in the way.
