How do I install tools and utilities after installing my
product?
Run the installer again from the downloaded package or the original media,
and click Install Tools & Utilities on the first screen. The installer guides you
through the process of selection, configuration, and installation of tools and
utilities.
When should I reinstall the product instead of repairing
it?
Reinstall your product if you accidentally delete or alter files that are required
by the program. Missing or altered files adversely affect the performance of
your product and cause error messages when you try to execute a command
or find a file.
If an attempt to repair an installation fails, reinstalling is the next best option.
Do I need the original media to reinstall my product?
Yes, unless you installed the product from an Autodesk website, using the
Install Now or Download Now options. When reinstalling a product, you are
prompted to load the original media. If the product was installed from a
network deployment, you need access to the original deployment, unaltered
by later changes such as the addition of a service pack.
When I uninstall my software, what files are left on
my system?
If you uninstall the product, some files remain on your computer such as files
you created or edited (for example, drawings or custom menus).
Your license file also stays on your computer when you uninstall your product.
If you reinstall on the same computer, the license information remains valid;
you do not have to reactivate the product.
