Hi,

 

>> I can not use delete key in autocad

Please describe step by step what you do (with keyboard, with mouse and on screen) and what AutoCAD's response in the command-line is for each of your actions.

Hi,

 

>> I cant use delete button on keyboard when i want to erase lines

I again don't see what happens in the command-line and what exactly you did and how AutoCAD reacted to each single step. (I also don't see which of the 2 lines in your drawing you try to erase).

If the erase tool, namely the ERASE Command, works correctly, as well as by clicking on the ERASE icon from the Home Ribbon and you only have problems with the DELETE key on your keyboard, there is a chance that You have defined a shortcut for it. In this case, this problem will occur for all drawing files in this version of software you have on your computer, you can fix the unwanted changes that may have been made by resetting the program to its default settings.
+WIN START MENU --> AUTOCAD --> reset setting to default.
But I have a better suggestion for you if of course the ERASE command works correctly, so it is best to use a shortcut key, the (E) Command, for less regular use and less use of the right hand.
