Prompted to Open the "Install" Drawing on Every Drawing

Why does Design Master ask me to open the Install drawing very time I open a drawing?​

Cause​

You have accidentally set one of the installation VLX or DES files to load each time you run AutoCAD or BricsCAD.

Solution​

To fix this problem in AutoCAD:

  1. Type APPLOAD at the command line.
  2. Press the Ā button in the StartupĀ Suite area of the Load/UnloadĀ Applications dialog box.
  3. Remove any files from the list related to Design Master. For Design Master Electrical, it is typically elec-loadInAutoCAD.vlx.

To fix this problem in BricsCAD:

  1. Type APPLOAD at the command line.
  2. In the LoadĀ ApplicationĀ Files dialog box, look for elec-loadInAutoCAD.des.
  3. Uncheck the ☐ AutoLoad setting.
