Text fields are missing some options after crash (suspected profile corruption)

Hello,

 

I have an interesting conundrum. I have been using object fields with the "name" property for some time now to label my assemblies in C3D. It's supposed to look like this:

Notice the object type is "Assembly" and the "name" property in the table.

 

A recent crash seems to have corrupted my custom profile because now my setup is showing up like this:

Notice the object type is now "AECC_ASSEMBLY" and the "name" property is now missing. All of my dynamic fields are now broken. I suspect the profile because restarting the program with the default <<C3D_Imperial>> fixes the issue. However, an interesting wrinkle is that switching profiles does not fix the isse. I specifically have to start the program with the profile flag. Here are what my shortcuts look like:

 

"C:\Program Files\Autodesk\AutoCAD 2025\acad.exe" /ld "C:\Program Files\Autodesk\AutoCAD 2025\AecBase.dbx" /p "<<C3D_Imperial>>" /product C3D /language en-US

"C:\Program Files\Autodesk\AutoCAD 2025\acad.exe" /ld "C:\Program Files\Autodesk\AutoCAD 2025\AecBase.dbx" /p "C:\HCPW-CAD\2025\C3D\Profile\C3D 2025 - HCPW.arg" /product C3D /language en-US

 

As you can see, the profile is the only difference.

 

So how do I fix my profile? I would really rather not have to restart the process of building a new profile, is there one key in the registry that is causing this issue that I can fix? Thanks 🙂

Close Civil 3D and delete the Support folder here and restart Civil 3D.

@MSchille-1994This didn't work. Restarting causd more errors and warnings. The Support fold did get repopulated with some files but not all.
