Hi @julior873G4,

 

When you say the Basic tools have disappeared, has anything been done recently to the PC to have possibly caused this?  Have you updated to a new version of the software, something like that?  Let me know when you have a second.

 

Thanks,

@julior873G4,

 

Are you attempting to recover custom tools you've created, or get back the Basic tool crib?

@julior873G4,

 

You want to go to the following location (C:\Program Files\Delcam\FeatureCAM\Program) or (C:\Program Files\Autodesk\FeatureCAM 2017\Program) and run the Initdb.exe.  All depends if you're running FeatureCAM 2017 or an older version.  That will determine whether you go to the Autodesk folder or the Delcam folder inside of the Program Files folder.  Make sure FeatureCAM is closed when you run this executable, once you're finished you can re-open FeatureCAM and the (Basic) tools crib should be loaded as long as you selected to install the inch crib.

 

Thanks,

@julior873G4,

 

Hopefully this worked for you and you're back up and running with the tool crib you were after.
