Autodesk products and Windows 10

Hello!

Can Autodesk products may launch and install on the new operating system MS Windows 10?


Official comments from Autodesk developers:
Windows 10 is not yet an officially supported operating system across the Autodesk product line. Autodesk intends to support many of our key products on Windows 10 and will add products to the list of products supported on Windows 10 as updates and future versions are released. Product Support will provide their best effort to assist customers who have issues with current Autodesk products running on Windows 10.
In other words we have to wait for any new versions or service packs. It's also important to note that support for Windows 10 will be implemented only for versions 2016, 2015, 2014 and 2013.

Product managers write comments in forum that testing support Win 10 


But users around the world try to install and run Autodesk applications on Windows 10 and achieve results. For example, Inventor 2016 running on Windows 10


Several recommendations from users:
  • if application doesn’t run once installed, you may have to run it as administrator (right click on icon -> Run as Administrator)
  • try to set compatibility (right click on icon -> Properties -> Compatibility -> Windows 7)
  • try to install or reinstall the Microsoft Visual C++ 2012 drivers. Click here to download

Product keys for Autodesk 2016 products

Hello!

Product keys are required for installation of Autodesk products and are used to differentiate products that are both sold independently and as part of a product suite.


For example, installing AutoCAD 2016 as a point product requires product key 001H1, but installing AutoCAD 2016 from the Autodesk Product Design Suite Ultimate 2016 requires product key 781H1. The same version of AutoCAD is in both software packages but the product key differentiates one package from the other.

AutoCAD Classic workspace in AutoCAD 2015/2016

Hello!

One of the most notable innovations in AutoCAD 2015 (also in AutoCAD 2016) is missing of classic workspace.


If you would like to use the AutoCAD Classic workspace in AutoCAD 2015, you must complete several steps:
  • Type -TOOLBAR in command line (don't miss symbol "-". It's very important!)


  • Enter toolbar name, for example Draw or Modify and select option Show


Requared panel appears on the screen


  • Now let’s turn off the Ribbon. Enter command RIBBONCLOSE


  • Enable the Menu Bar with the system variable MENUBAR = 0 (1 - displays the menu bar, 0 - hides the menu bar)


  • Right-click on Draw panel and select other requared panels. We must select the panels Standart, Styles, Layers, Properties, Draw, Modify and Worspaces to achieve usual classic workspace


  • And now we must dock panels on the screen


Do you recognize the "old school" classic AutoCAD?

  • Enter in Workspace Settings (WSSETTINGS) and choose Automatically save workspace changes option


It's necessary to save changes you've made to a workspace when you switch to another workspace.
  • Finally we need to save workspace as AutoCAD Classic 


Done!

Sincerely yours
Andrey Mikhailov
