check this if helps. thanks

At the Command prompt, enter STEPOUT.
In the STEPOUT Translation dialog box, in the Files of type box, select *.ste,*.stp, or *.step.
In the File Name box, specify the name of the STEP file.
Click Save.

You need to start the Mechanical Toolset (AutoCAD Mechanical).

Hi,

Yes, you are right. I followed Alfred's suggestion by opening the autocad mechanical 2020 (not autocad 2020) and .... I got it!

Thank you for your patient in sharing with me. ^O^

Ten It
