Understanding the AutoCAD Support Path
The AutoCAD Support
File Search Path is where AutoCAD will automatically look for files.
Design Master files need to be located in one of the defined support paths
so that AutoCAD can locate them.
You can change the paths by selecting the Tools->Options from
the pulldown menu.
In the Options window, select the Files tab.
Here you can add and remove directories from the Support File Search
Path. The default installation of AutoCAD includes the four support
paths listed below. Make sure that you do not accidentally remove any
of them. Design Master depends upon the support directory being listed
and other AutoCAD functionality depends upon the other folders.
