I have just installed my new home computer and discovered that the SDK did not want to work anymore.  You know the "Drawing Tools" addin with the revcloud feature. (Why this is not a standard feature no-one knows)

I tried everything that I have previously posed, only to find that it does not work.  Guess what ? The answer was right there all along, hidden in the text file:


Solution to get it working:
1) Open a command prompt (I used admin mode)
2) cd\C:\Users\Public\Documents\Autodesk\Inventor 2015\SDK\UserTools\DrawingTools\bin
3) Type regsvr32 "DrawingTools.dll"

That's it, open inventor and the addin will be available.


I found a typo, and thought I would correct it quickly, just in case someone actually reads this stuff.
Step 2 correction.
cd\Users\Public\Documents\Autodesk\Inventor 2015\SDK\UserTools\DrawingTools\bin
