Copy support paths from one computer to another

Issue

Solution

The support paths are stored in a "profile," so once you have the paths set up the way you want them on one computer, you can simplify the process of setting up the other computers by following these two procedures:

To export the current profile

1. Enter options on the command line.
2. In the Options dialog box, click the Profiles tab.
3. Select the current profile and click Export.
4. Select the file location and enter a name for the ARG file, and then click Save.

To import the profile to another computer

1. Take the ARG file or make it accessible to the next computer you want to configure.
2. Start AutoCAD.
3. Enter options on the command line.
4. In the Options dialog box, click the Profiles tab.
5. Click Import, browse to the location of the ARG file, and select it.
6. Click Open.
7. In the Import Profile dialog box, name and describe the profile as desired.
8. Select the Include Path Information check box.
9. Click Apply & Close.

The profile will be imported and made current automatically.
