AutoCAD Installation Error; "Aborted.(Error: 9)"

[Anonymous]

I'm having trouble installing AutoCAD 2014 ...

After proceeding with the download, the loading task bar fails when it reaches 98% with the report, "Aborted. (Error 9)."

This is the first time I've had trouble downloading anything from Autodesk. If anyone has advice, I would greatly appreciate any correspondence. Thanks!

Is this the error of which you speak... http://knowledge.autodesk.com/support/autocad/troubleshooting/caas/sfdcarticles/sfdcarticles/Error-R...

Did you download the product via the Autodesk Virtual Agent... http://autodesk.creativevirtual15.com/autodesk/bot.html?isJSEnabled=1&businessArea=Root.Front%20Desk... if not it might be worth redownloading the file.

I believe the issue maybe connected to your broadband. Do you have a cap on your download? It might be worth you trying to use Download Manager to download the product in stages so you dont use all of your broadband cap. Download Manager has the ability to pause the download so you can continue another day.

Try using Download Now and remember to do it in stages... i'd be interested to hear if this fixes things for you.

Error 9 = there is a folder or filename "Autodesk" in your disk C.

Before installing autocad make sure to remove all folders or files with name "Autodesk" in C.

No problem after doing this lol

Will the procedure using virtual agent work for the educational version?

Hi @Anonymous and welcome to the Autodesk Community!

The Virtual Agent procedure will work with educational versions. The only extra step will be activating the product using the serial number and product key provided by the Education Community upon your first download attempt in the Community.

I hope this helps!

Hi @Anonymous,

Welcome to the community!

Sorry to hear about the issue. Have you tried all of the previously posted suggestions?

[Anonymous]

hi! thanks for your quickly answer, yes, in fact, we did some of things written here, but, the problem continues

[Anonymous]

search these terms "Autocad" or "Autodesk" in your disk C and remove all corresponding's files.
tell me for the result.
Have fun

just wanted to inform you that it can't be an issue with Key Or Registration, because I don't even have the program installed yet. I am trying to install the TRIAL VERSION that should not require any activation so this information regarding Error 9 is incorrect.

[Anonymous]

i get the same trouble, i tried to download autocad 2016 education.. help 

[Anonymous]

Hi you,
To solve "error 9" you should make 2 step:
1. Uninstall all previous auto cad.
2. Make sure empty folder %tempt % (in Run window).
Now you can install new auto cad software.
