Autocad 2014 clicking problems, windows 8.1

[lilymayoung]

Hi, I'm new here, in fact I signed up just to ask this.

 

I've been using Autocad 2014 on my Windows 8 laptop with no problems, until I had to have the hard drive replaced, then the technicians upgraded my OS to Windows 8.1.

 

Autocad seems to be working just fine, however I'm experiencing some clicking problems:

 

1. Copy command - When I select multiple objects, I have to click twice before I can select anything. Nothing happens on the first click.

 

2. Move command - When I move objects, I like to click on empty space as a base point. however, it doesn't work.

 

Any ideas? Thanks.

Hi, Thanks for your reply. Pickfirst setting was already set to . I Think I'll try and re-install it and see what happens.

You can also reset AutoCAD to it's default setting's without reinstalling it.

Already tried that, but nothing changed. Currently running an installation repair.

FWIW -

 

This is the reason why many export their Profile, and backup to thumb drive, Google Drive, etc. once 'setup' the way they like... So that in the event of a disaster, OS upgrade, etc. they can simply import their Profile, and get back to work in short order.
