I have an employee that has very particular opinions about how she wants her AutoCAD settings but she seems very adept at changing random settings and not knowing how to put them back. Invariably it takes a bunch of effort and research to figure out what she did and how to restore the setting. Two days ago she managed to turn off the 'Pick First' option; yesterday she managed to make the tabs for switching between multiple open drawings disappear. The wasted time created by her sticky fingers is really frustrating. Is there any way to save a backup of all her AutoCAD settings so that when she does something the backup file can just be reloaded?
Thanks in advance for any ideas you have,
Renee

I think it's the same in 2015 as 2014, I haven't downloaded it yet.
Go to Start > Autodesk > Autocad 2014 English > Migrate Custom Settings > Export Autocad 2014 Settings. Import settings is the same path. It may be different if you didn't install using the defaults, or a different windows release, but it should be similar enough to find it.
