AUTOCAD 2017 STUDENT VERSION DOWNLOAD

[TFOSTERMORPHIS]

Hello All,

In downloading ACAD 2017 student version the operation stops with the install button grayed out.

The download dialog box (screen shot attached) attached,  shows:

                                                                      Disc Space: 276 MB required / 127 GB available

Why does the download stop with plenty of disc space remaining.  

What should I do allow a complete download.

Thanks, 

Tommy

Hi,

>> In downloading ACAD 2017 student version the operation stops with the install button grayed out.

Am I correct that you are asking the same question again?

My previous answer was: your screenshot shows that all products are installed, every product in the screenshot (AutoCAD, ReCap and A360 Desktop) do have the marker "INSTALLED". So there is nothing to do and so the button INSTALL is greyed out (what else should it do?).

Alfred,

Thanks for your reply.

I did get past my erroneously perceived issue.

However, as I open the app, I get dialog box stating  "Problem loading acadres.dll resource file."

In researching for a solution on this forum I see that you have tried to help at least one person with this in the past.

You bowed out saying that this statement was tantamount to saying "the car won't start"  To many options for what may be wrong to work with in the forum.

Is this still the case?

Should I again uninstall all ACAD 2017 programs and reinstall.  I also have Revit 2017 & sds Max 2017 installed.

Thanks, again.

Hi,

>> I open the app, I get dialog box stating  "Problem loading acadres.dll resource file."

Searching for that error message brings up >>>this article<<< and yes, suggests a complete uninstall and reinstall.

I would not start with uninstalling and reinstalling AutoCAD, I would start with the C++ repair, and when that is done login with a new Windows user account and see if AutoCAD is now working. During the whole process disable your Antivirus software to make sure that it does not block any installation passes.

Good luck, - alfred -

You might want to start a new ticket / post. This one is from 2016.

What are you trying to do ... download a Student version of the software?
