How do I share my current profile with my laptop computer?

When I Export my Profile from AutoCAD 2018 to our server, then Import the profile to my laptop from the server, The Laptop doesn't recognize it profile and gives me an error stating that "The Ribbon does not have any tabs or Panels currently loaded". How do I correct this?

 

Can I export my .ARG file to a memory stick then Import it?

Hi,

 

>> Can I export my .ARG file to a memory stick then Import it? <<

Yes you can ... just specify a location where you want to save your profile then give it a name then click on save button. You will notice that an ARG file will be created at specified location.To use this profile in other workstations copy it there and click import on profiles tab of options window then locate the file and click open. The Custom profile will be added to the list of available profiles. Set this profile as current and all custom settings will be replaced by the settings stored in Custom profile.

Should I name the profile differently from the profile in my options?

That did not work, I exported the profile to my memory stick, opened a drawing on laptop, went to Options, profiles- Imported to list, Set as Current Profile, and got the same error that I don't have any tabs or Panels
