Autoca LT 2017 not working on Widnows 11

[SandraGrzeskowiak]

I purchesed new komputer with Windows 11. I installed as usual Autocad LT 2017. At first time program run (to put my licences) and after that is always crash- not open. There is a window "Loading plug ins... AcConnectWebServices.arx " and after that program is closed.

Just so you know 2017 is not supported on Windows 11

As it isn't supported on Windows 11, I suggest running it in a virtual pc with Windows 7.

@SandraGrzeskowiak   Just use 2021 it's supported on Windows 11.   Or upgrade.  Note, 2017 is the older DWG format too.  So if you go to 2018 or higher they would need to be saved down if you're using them in another program or like a CNC. 

@Simon_Weel  Why not use W10 virtual? 

@SandraGrzeskowiak  could use LongBow too:

Sorry, I am regular user. Have no idea how to do this 😞

[mdavis22569]

@SandraGrzeskowiak  Have to either roll back to Windows 10 or upgrade your AutoCAD to 2022 or newer.

Or pay for a 3rd party software like LongBow .. those are the only options

Sadly, only you can do the work: I recommend asking an IT friend or paying for an IT person (or new PC Support/maker) to assist if you find these needed solutions to be challenging.

LT2017 is only designed to run in these operating systems
