Express tools installed but not loaded

wissam.kairouaAQ3EW — Thu, 04 Jul 2019 13:31:33 GMT

Hi,

I have installed the Express Tools for Autocad 2020, and tried to load it by using the commands Expresstools and Expressmenu but without a success. The Express tools are still not showing.

I have checked the path in the option>Files and the path is existing.

need your help please

Thanks

Hello ...

AutoCAD 2020 has a bug that does not display installed plugins.

I suggest repairing an installation of your AutoCAD and installing Express along with the software, so running normally.

installing Express separately may cause problems.

Thanks for the answer,

this is bad new though. I did use the Repair/Add feature to install the Expresstools. I don't think that uninstalling and reinstalling Autocad will solve the problem besides it will cost a lot of time.

Thanks again...

enter the MENULOAD command and verify that Express is appearing in the menu list.

in this case the installation did not occur.

checks to see if this folder exists on your computer:

C: \ Program Files \ Autodesk \ AutoCAD 2020 \ Express

after resetting Autocad setting, the Expresstools menu has appeared in the menu bar.
