    Default Shortcuts in Search Support Paths are invalid

    This directory is not in my search support paths. How can I remedy Autocad from searching for this?

    Delete the shortcut.
    Just a guess, someone installed a new version of autocad and migrated custom setting for the new setup. That would copy a new version of that shortcut to a support folder that everyone uses.

    But this directory is not in my search directories. I would like to know how its where the configuration setting is that is making it look here.

    You are looking at the wrong setting. It is not a Support File Search Path setting, but a Plot Style Table Search Path setting. The advice to delete the shortcut .lnk file is the correct answer. The link is pointing to a path your user is not permitted to access either by permissions or it doesn't exist.
    If you have a technical question, please find the appropriate forum and ask it there.
    You will get a quicker response from your fellow AUGI members than if you sent it to me via a PM or email.

    Agreed. Check drive letter or user permissions.
