Yes, but not quite. The idea is that you have the acad20## (et al) as per the DVD / latest update. Only the stuff you added should be inside the acad.lsp & acaddoc.lsp.
For the registry, open the registry editor (Start --> Run... type REGEDIT & click OK). Browse to the folder(s) as noted. Make a backup of that particular folder, right-click on it & select Export (save to a reg file of your choice) - you can later double click on it to restore the values if there's a stuff-up. Double click the various values on the right-side pane to edit them. Not sure how this would affect the appload, so you'd probably need some trial-n-error (thus the backup is very important).
Have you by change redefined the appload command somewhere else? It seems as if a lisp gets loaded, there's a line (369) in your ACAD2010.LSP file:
Code:
(autoload "appload" '("appload" "appload"))
Although it may just load the appload.arx as it should, but my 2008's not got anything like that in its files.
To check if it's redefined through lisp, type !c:appload at the command prompt ... if it returns anything else than nil, it's been redefined.
