Unable to install content libraries for Autocad Mech 2010 64-bit on Windows 7

Having an issue installing the concent libraries for Autocad Mechanical on a 64-bit Windows 7 machine.  During the install it give me this error (Error 1320. The specified path is too long: c:\documents and settings\all users).  If I go into configure the installation to modify the Content libraries under Autocad Mechanical 2010, it gives me this error (C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Documents\Autodesk\ACADM 2010\ACADM\Gef\Gdb).  Any ideas?

 

Thanks,


Tammy

Tammy,

 

Since this Mechanical Desktop (MDT) Forum is not for AutoCAD Mechanical, I suggest that you post in the AutoCAD Mechanical Forum:

 

http://forums.autodesk.com/t5/AutoCAD-Mechanical/bd-p/39

 

or possibly better the Installation and Licensing Forum where the install experts hang out:

I hope this helps,

Hi, Tammy

 

The default install location for content libraries on a Vista or Windows 7 OS machine is as follows

 

C:\Users\Public\Documents\Autodesk\ACADM 2010\ACADM\Gef\Gdb

 

Can you try the above path during installation and verify if it works?

 

Please find attached snapshot.

 

Thanks

This problem is no longer a considered because it has been solved.There is away to fix this problem and the name of that software is Long Path Tool.I highly recommend it to you since I have already used it.
