Reset Settings problem

I'm trying to reset my original MAP 2015 settings and have a problem with it.  I'm using the Infrastructure Suite insatllation.

What I'm doing is going to Start Menu/All Programs/Autodesk/AutoCAD 2015 - English/ where my MAP  3D .exe resides and run the RESET SETTINGS TO DEFAULT command.  I'm getting an error that says "AutoCAD 2015 - English has not been run yet.  There are no settings to reset."
However, when I run MAP 3D executable, the error message says "Autodesk AutoCAD Map 3D 2015 is currently running.  You must close the application prior to running Reset Settings"

 

So I closed MAP down and ran the RESET SETTINGS TO DEFAULT command again and got the first error again. 

 

I went into the properties of the command and can't seem to get the path to work.  The target reads "C:\Program Files\Autodesk\AutoCAD 2015\AdMigrator.exe" /reset /product ACAD /language "en-US"    and the Start in reads "C:\Program Files\Autodesk\AutoCAD 2015\"

I'm guessing it has to do with the .../product ACAD/... portion, but I can't seem to get it to work, even after a couple of stabs in the dark.  I must be ovrlooking something ovbious, but can't figure out what.

 

How can I get around this and restore my MAP settings to default?

Hi,

 

>> I'm guessing it has to do with the .../product ACAD/

Correct, try that instead (change "ACAD" to "MAP"):

 

"C:\Program Files\Autodesk\AutoCAD 2015\AdMigrator.exe" /reset /product MAP /language "en-US"

That was it Alfred...I guessed it was something simple like that. 

Thank you!
