I use AutoCAD software daily at work. Autodesk just recently updated AutoCAD
to work with Vista. Version 2007 worked with Vista, but not well. For one
thing a .dwg file did not open in AutoCAD by double-clicking it. You also
couldn't add AutoCAD to the Default Programs list.
Great thing was, when I installed AutoCAD 2008, that was fixed as well as
all the other issues that 2007 had with Vista.
I was on vacation last week and arriving back at work today, I have found
that AutoCAD is no longer the default for .dwg files. Worse yet, the Default
Programs window will not allow me to add the acad.exe file to the list of
applications to choose from. I click Browse, select the acad.exe file, click
Open, it goes back to the Default Programs window and NOTHING happens. No
error, nothing.
WHAT - THE - HECK???
So, question 1, why did it change the default program?
Question 2, why can't I add AutoCAD to the list?
Thanks,
