I got this error while installing AutoCAD in my laptop with Windows Vista. I tried installing again but to no avail. Do I need to do the installation in the office? How can I install it at home? Anyone who could help me?

Hi Ivan,

Windows Vista has a lot of problems like this regarding windows registry problem. While installing AutoCAD 2011 Subscription Advantage Pack in your vista you have received this error because the current user's profile is not configured correctly in the Windows Registry. 

To resolve this issue please follow the steps given below carefully:

  1. Go to Start Menu> Rum command or just press the Windows Key+R.
  2. In the Run command, type regedit and press enter.
  3. It will open the Registry Editor. Now browse to the following key: 
    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Shell Folders.
  4. Now you have to make sure that each of these values (found in Shell Folders) is correct by entering them into the Address Bar of Windows Explorer. While doing so if you receive an error in any of these paths, you have to correct the value before you again try to install the AutoCAD again.

Hope, this will surely fix your problem.

Regards,

Guzman
