Migrate and Transfer
Custom Settings and Files
In this section, you learn about migrating from previous releases, as well as transferring custom
settings and files between workstations running the same release.
If you have a previous version of AutoCAD LT installed on your system, you can install a
newer version of AutoCAD LT and keep other versions of the program on the same system.
This is called a side-by-side installation.
If you have purchased an upgrade version of AutoCAD LT, you are required to uninstall the
previous version within 120 days of installing your newer product. See your license agreement
for more information.
Migrate Custom Settings and Files from Previous
Releases
Migrate your custom settings and files from previous releases of AutoCAD LT
to your new release.
The following methods are available:
■ Use the Migrate Custom Settings dialog box to automatically migrate user
profiles, CUI and CUIx files, and other custom settings and file types. The
Migrate Custom Settings dialog box is displayed the first time you start
AutoCAD LT after an upgrade; you can also access it from the Windows Start
menu.
■ Manually migrate custom settings and files in the following ways:
■ Transfer customization elements between CUI files
■ Export and import tool palettes and tool palette groups
