Hi All,

Changed over to a new PC so had to do a fresh install, is there any way to copy my saved custom joints in my previous library into my new library?

 

Thanks,

AC.

Accepted solution

all saved joints are saved in the astorrules. So by copying this database, all you connection should be available.
You also copy the other database from this folder, to have all your settings like defaults:
C:\ProgramData\Autodesk\Advance Steel 2020\*installed language*\Steel\Data

 

I would delete the ldf files, then this should work without problems.
If you want exactly all the same from your old pc (bom list, drawing styles, palettes and so on) you could also copy the whole "Advance Steel folder" but as already wrote, delete the ldf files
