when I use save as in AutoCAD the computer stock. the problem is solved when repair install just for the first run then stock again. I think it is a virus how can find the virus which prevents autocad from saving or block it if antivirus was not slove the problem.

thanks

Hi @Anonymous,

 

If you feel this is a security software that is blocking the SaveAs, try rebooting in a diagnostic mode (msconfig). Turn everything off and reboot. If AutoCAD is happy then it is likely one of the application that get loaded at startup and you can re-enable them one at a time until you find the culprit.

Hi,

>> I think it is a virus  ....

and maybe NOT .

does this problem just lately appeared ? 

does it happened in every CAD .dwg file or just in a certain one ? 

if you make a new drawing saved on your Desktop place ... any changes ? 

 

Regards,

HI @Anonymous,

 

Are you saying that you just don't see a dialog box when you want to perform a Saveas?

 

Set your FILEDIA=1 and see if that corrects the problem.

You can copy the file to and open a new file to try saving
If not, you can use the Dxfout command
Or the audit command, choose Y
