Plant 3D 2014 Extension 1 erased my Express Tools and Create View tools

After installing Extension 1 my Express tools and the create View panel, the one allowing me to create base, projected and section views from a 3d solid, are all missing, and no longer available in the CUI to add them back in.  Has anyone else encountered anything missing after installing the new extension or know why it did that?  Thanks

 

Phil

Every workstation that we have installed the extention on in our office has similarly had the Express tools removed (both ribbon and pull down), as well as the Layout tab.  Lookign for a solution as well.

This sounds like an OOTB Enterprise CUIx was overwritten, or Main if Enterprise wasn't being used.

found a solution...type EXPRESSTOOLS in the command line and hit enter. your express tools should load.

Same issue.

Also found the BOM tool inop.

Many settings to tweak first (maaaaybe when I get time).

Got the Express Tools operational again.

Was getting all kinds of random (to me) errors.

Ext1 one does not update the support files path correctly.

Add: C:\Autodesk\AutoCAD_Plant_3D_2013_Extension_1_English_Win_64bit\x64\en-US\PLNT3D\Acad\Program Files\Root\UserDataCache\en-us\Support

And now green.

Also did the Express tools commands suggested below.
