Unneccessary recompiling of ACAD.MNR PDF Print E-mail
Saturday, 01 April 2006

When "automatically save workspace changes" is turned on, ACAD.CUI is saved every time you close AutoCAD, regardless of whether or not you made any changes to your workspace. At the next startup, since AutoCAD.CUI holds a newer filedate, the application needlessly recompiles ACAD.MNR, adding a little more time to a startup process that is already slow enough.

In all fairness, this may not be a true bug, but rather considered "working as desiged." Even so, its indicative of the lazy, rushed bloat ware that we've been subjected to for several years so it is included in this list.

First Appeared: AutoCAD 2006
Status as of 2008: Still reproducible
Status as of 2009: (unknown - please email with any info)
