View the Migration Log File
The migration log file (migration.xml) provides specific information about any
settings or files that were not successfully migrated to AutoCAD.
The log file shows all the files that were successfully copied from a previous
version to the newer AutoCAD. It also provides information about files that
were not successfully migrated. Use the log for troubleshooting if there are
unwanted or unexpected results in your AutoCAD profiles.
After you use the Migrate Custom Settings dialog box to migrate custom
settings and files, a message is displayed from which you open the migration
log file. You can view the migration log file at that time. You can also navigate
to the file if you want to view the log details another time.
To locate and view the migration log file
