Lost ARA 2010

[Doug]

Good Day!
I am running Vista 64:( ... had a bit of a problem with my graphic card :(.. so I had to go back to a restore point prior to installing ARA 2010. Now I lost all of the Desktop Icon's to start the program and it no longer shows up in the Program List either.

The ARA 2010 Directory is still there but I do see an exe file for Revit. Does anyone know how to get it back short of re-downloading and re-installling?

You could try a register fix like ccleaner... or indeed re-install in the same folder.
Does it still work if you invoke the exe file and create a shortcut to desktop?

start / run

autocad architecture 2010
"C:\Program Files\AutoCAD Architecture 2010\acad.exe"

or

revit architecture 2010
"C:\Program Files\Autodesk Revit Architecture 2010\Program\Revit.exe"

if that works, great, make a shortcut with that as the target
if not, then you will probably have to reinstall it.

PS: since there are spaces in the location, e.g. Program Files, then you NEED the quotes in start / run

Nothing worked...:(
Lucky for me :mrgreen: the CD came today!

restore points always seemed to cause more problems than they created.
