AutoCAD Vista Error 1606 How do apply this?

You received this error message because the Windows registry keys that point to the current user's profile are not configured correctly.


To resolve:


Open Win Explorer.


In Win Explorer, browse to the C:\Windows directory.


Locate Regedit.exe and double-click it to open the Registry Editor.


In the Registry Editor, browse to the following key:


HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\W... Folders


This Registry key contains the values that point to the current user's Windows profile. You will need to make sure that each of these values is correct by entering them into the Address Bar in Windows Explorer. If you receive an error for any of these paths, you will have to correct the value before you try to install the Autodesk product again.


Note: By default, Windows Vista user profiles are stored in the C:\Users directory. In the Windows Explorer Address Bar, enter %USERPROFILE% to determine which user profile is associated with the current user.

What version of AutoCAD is this? When you installed the software you should have been logged in as an Administrator and if it's an early version of AutoCAD you'll need to have AutoCAD running in Windows XP mode (it's a setting in Vista).





In doing these things it should work for you. If you were not logged on as an Admin then you should do an uninstall of the program and re-install it as an Admin.
