Remove Bimcollab ribbon tab

harald_ebbers — Mon, 21 Aug 2023 13:13:55 GMT

I have been searching on how to permanently remove this but no success.

Current status is that it is not there when I open autocad. But when I open any drawing the ribbon tab appears and focus is also shifted to this ribbon tab, so I will have to click on another tab again to start work.

I have already:

1 Uninstalled bimcollab from windows

2 Unticked both the ribbon tab and ribbon panel and resaved profile

3 Installed another version of autocad (but had to import settings from previous version as to not to lose them)

Anybody has a clue on how to permanently remove this?

There was nothing in Contents button under Startup Suite.

I checked through the lsp files, but found nothing on bimcollab there.

I could do that but then I would lose all the other modifications which I don't want.

@harald_ebbers ,

Remove the Bimcollab if shown in the CUI, then save or saveas - may even want to reopen.

Show us your sample:

That doesn't work, I don't see bimcollab in the CUI there. It is only added to the menu once I open any dwg file.

Does it show up in the Windows add/remove menu?

Yeah, I did the uninstalling already.

I just now did a clean install of autocad 2024 without any migration. Once I opened a dwg, bimcollab was added to the menu again.
