this is How to install autocad 2015 to windows 10

Well, I tried to install AutoCAD on Windows 10 but I faced a problem that the AutoCAD can't detect the dot net framework 4.5 on my computer , and when I try to fix that and download it from Microsoft, it says that .NET Framework is already part of the system. So, if U face this, don't give up. Here is what U have to do to fix this, step-by-step. 
--------------------

Well, the solution is easy. We should change a key in regestry then AutoCAD will be able to check the .NET Framework, but the problem is that we don't have access to change that, so we have to do some clicks to get the ownership of that key.

Here are the details: 
#1 - Go to "Regedit", and then go to "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\NET Framework Setup\NDP\v4\Client"

 

 

 

When U get the ownership of the "client" folder, change the key "version" to "4.5" and start installing.  😉 

 

When U finish installing, U can change this value back. 

 

Have fun!

If you can't wait for Autodesk, you've already tried installing your ACA variant under Win10's Compatibility Mode (plus "run as administrator") and failed to get it to work, or Autodesk just won't support your ACA/ADTversion, you can buy a fix that works here and skip all the above posted so far http://www.longbowsoftware.com (not affiliated with it, just reporting what others found as a perfect fix).

I would suggest you to disable .NET framework 4.6 from the Turn Windows features on and off, install version 4.5 and then re-enable version 4.6.

 

To disable .NET framework 4.6 from Turn Windows features On and Off

 

Go to Control Panel and in the search bar, type "Turn Windows features On and Off."

 

From the "Turn Windows features On and Off" section, uncheck the .NET framework feature and wait for the setup to process and restart the computer. Once done, Install .NET framework 4.5 and then install Auto CAD on the computer.

Windows Compatibility Center.

Also check if it is compatible with Windows 10. Refer the link below to do so:

With the recent release of hotfixes from Microsoft for Windows 10, most Autodesk packages should get installed without any issues. When you install Win 10, make sure to install all latest updates for Win 10 from MSFT before installing Autodesk Products.

Tenia el mismo problema y encontre la solucion... despues de realizar todos los pasos, vuelve a picarle a la carpeta client con el click derecho y le das en permissions, le das en advance y ahi picale abajo donde dice add(agregar), despues arriba donde dice select a principal, advance, find now, selecciona tu usuario, ok, marcas la casilla de full control, ok, ok, ok. listo ya puedes cambiar el nombre de la version.

 

Saludos.

It works! Thank you very much. Autodesk should post it somewhere in official knowledge base!

After successful installation should we again change pemission in regedit to the state before installation?
