Uninstalled content center

[Anonymous]

I was trying to add components to my content center (small square tubing diameters found on cbliss.com). I found some instructions from KETIV Technologies which said to uninstall the component center and set the application options to Autodesk Vault server. When I did so a prompt came up to log in to the Vault server under administrator. Apparently my company has never set up the Vault or if they have nobody knows the password. When I switched the application options back to Inventor desktop content my Content Center is empty (I assume because I uninstalled the library as per the instructions I found said to uninstall it). Is there a way to download just the content center library again or do I have to reinstall my whole Design Suite (Autodesk Product Design Suite Ultimate 2016). Also how do I get my content center configured to Read/Write libraries properly?

Thanks to anyone who can help me out here.

I would first try to reload the content center through the Uninstall utility. Not intuitive, but there is a "repair" option when you run the Autodesk Uninstall option - so I would choose this option and attempt to select those components you are missing / having trouble with.

In the future, just rename the folder instead of uninstalling (Put OLD in the title, etc. so the software cannot find it. Then you just remove the "OLD" to put it back).

Hope that helps,

Kenny

Just restore it from backups.. Your company does have backups right? 

You can also reinstall it just as you installed Inventor.. (might even just need to do a repair install)
