Auto generating acaddoc.lsp

[madhusurao]

Hi everybody,

Whenever we save the drawing, it is automatically generating "acaddoc.lsp" along with the ".bak" files. Could anyone raise their response if come across. So, everytime we need to delete manually.

We are using AutoCAD 2011.

Cheers

This is something to keep:

acaddoc.lsp

And if you wish to disable *.bak files that can be done thru OPTIONS; Open and Save in the bottom left panel.

Post back when you need to recover a drawing for some reason that does not have a backup copy and we can try to...

Not every CAD file is superfluous.

Plot log files for me are but not backup files.

Please mark any response as "Accept as Solution" if it answers your question.

Why are you posting in the LT forum for full AutoCAD?

Browse the AutoCAD forums, not LT: you are describing a known FAS virus infection that can hit AutoCAD from downloads on the internet: http://forums.autodesk.com/t5/AutoCAD/ct-p/8

Thanks Charles.

If we do MOVEBAK operation, only *.bak files can be controlled to relocate of its path... But not unable to moving this augo generating "acadoc.lsp".

Any more suggestions please.....

Amazing how people don't want to hear about bad news that they just ignore it and hope it's not true 😞

I'm happy to read here and learn.

Never heard of the potential virus before and the OP apparently does need to dig further.

MOVEBAK only does what it's name indicated: MOVE BAK files.
