AutoCAD 2023 - Command string not working on all computers ^C^C_start

[jdrury1]

We created a tool pallet that enables you to open our criteria for drawings.  The Command string works on some computers but not all.  Any suggestions?  AutoCAD 2023.

^C^C_start "explorer" "C:/MARTA-Tools/Toolpalette/Documents/CFD.pdf";

Pendean asked about OEM version,

share a screenshot of the whole program window and one more of dialog, command: ABOUT

>>"Same copy is on my machine, and it works great. "

Okay, the OEM question is answered by this statement.

But compare the productversion between both installs, command ABOUT

Id hate to have you reset the problem station to AutoCAD defaults but that would be one way to troubleshoot what's causing the START command and the STARTAPP lisp function to fail

ABOUT window:

My question was: Are both installs wirhout any product update? (Current is version 2023.1.2),

I am out, except of Repairinstall, Un-/Re-install, sorry.

I will follow this topic, but I can't help, sorry.

You have an override taking place, the rest of us do not have that. On one PC, reset R2023 (after you install all the missing update) like this https://knowledge.autodesk.com/support/autocad/learn-explore/caas/sfdcarticles/sfdcarticles/How-to-r....

It appears that the command string you've provided for AutoCAD 2023 works inconsistently across different computers. To address this, you may want to consider a legal review of the command and your document handling process. Ensure that the file path to "C:/MARTA-Tools/Toolpalette/Documents/CFD.pdf" is legally accessible on all machines. It's also worth examining the CAD configurations and policies to guarantee the smooth operation of your document-related tools, making sure they comply with legal standards across all systems. This legal evaluation may help resolve the variability in performance and ensure a consistent experience for your users.
