When I downloaded AutoCAD Architecture, only two icons on my desktop appeared: AutoCAD Architecture US Metric, and AutoCAD Architecture Global. How would I download this?<br><br>Also my catalog browser isn't showing the imperial catalog. Is it possible to attach the .zip file for AutoCAD Architecture US imperial Catalog here for me to download?<br><br>Thanks so much!

If the profile exists in your installation of AutoCAD Architecture, then just copy the icon to a different folder and change the startup options (under properties) to point to the profile you want to use.  Then move the icon back to the desktop.

 

If the profile doesn't exist, use the installer to add that content.

Hi,

Where is the installer? The profile doesn't exist on my computer.

Thanks!

Start > Control Panel > Programs and Features > Uninstall or change a program.

 

Right click on the Autodesk AutoCAD Architecture version you wish to update, and choose Uninstall/Change.

 

Then choose Add or Remove Features, select the content you wish to have installed and choose Add content...

I'm here with a German install of ACA 2018, together with an English LP.

I've added the US Imperial catalog, as described by David, but it doesn't show up in the Content Browser.

 

In ACA English I've switched in Options to User profile AutoCAD Architecture (US Imperial), but no change happens in Content Browser.

I've changed startup option to below lines, but same result:

"C:\Program Files\Autodesk\AutoCAD 2018\acad.exe" /ld "C:\Program Files\Autodesk\AutoCAD 2018\AecBase.dbx" /p "AutoCAD Architecture (US Imperial)" /product "ACA" /language "en-US"

 

Do I miss another setting?

Thanks for hints

Thanks, Jeff

I tried repair both for German ACA 2018 and English LP, but no change. I'm suspecting a localization issue now.

I have the same problem, and when I press Add content automatically opens new window and ask to open the file from documents. What I must to do next?
