Setup Recommendations

Get AutoCAD only from Autodesk’s official site or authorized partners.
Do not disable antivirus or firewall protection during the install process.
Secure your Autodesk account with a strong password and enable two-factor authentication.

Typical Problems & Solutions

AutoCAD freezes or fails to start: This often results from outdated drivers, corrupt configuration files, or problematic plug-ins. Update drivers, reset preferences, and remove unnecessary add-ons.

Activation or sign-in errors: Frequently caused by incorrect system date/time, unstable internet, or expired login credentials. Correct clock settings, ensure a steady connection, and re-log into Autodesk.

Issue	Suggested Action
Slow performance on large design files	Use `PURGE` and `OVERKILL` commands, link external references, and enable GPU acceleration.
Corrupted drawing or template files	Repair using `RECOVER` or `AUDIT`, then save the file to a safe directory.
Fonts or print settings missing	Reinstall the needed fonts and restore your plot style settings.

Quick Fix Steps

Reset AutoCAD to default preferences.
Install the latest graphics drivers and activate hardware acceleration.
Run AUDIT and RECOVER on problematic files.
Temporarily remove add-ons to isolate performance issues.
Sign out/in to refresh your Autodesk license.
Reinstall AutoCAD from Autodesk’s official package if issues persist.
