·Delete or uninstall any previous versions of the Alpha 1 – 4 or Beta builds.

·Delete all files/folders under C:UsersPublicDocumentsAutodeskInventor 2016

·Delete all files/folders under C:ProgramDataAutodeskInventor 2016

·Delete the following folders:

%USERPROFILE%AppDataLocalAutodeskInventor 2016Content Center

%USERPROFILE%DocumentsInventorContent Center FilesR2016

·Following installation, open Inventor, right-click on the ribbon, and select the 'Reset Ribbon' command so that the default ribbon layout changes are initially displayed. (Right click on the empty grey area to the right of the ribbon, and select Ribbon Appearance > Reset Ribbon.)

·Autodesk Inventor 2016 works only on a 64-bit operation system.

·Update your operating system before you install Autodesk Inventor 2016. Reboot your system after all updates are installed.

·If you are using Windows 7 on a 64-bit system, verify that you have the Microsoft fix for user mode callback exceptions KB976038. This fix ensures that Autodesk receives the correct data from Inventor error reports. For more information, and access to this fix and related Microsoft downloads, see Autodesk Technical Solution 15492718.

·Close all Autodesk applications before installation, maintenance, or uninstallation of the software.

·If you download the source files to a local folder with a name that contains non-English characters, ensure that the language in Regional Settings is consistent with the language name of the local folder.

Installation

·Autodesk Inventor 2016 installs .NET 4.5 SP1 on Windows 7 operating systems. If you have Autodesk Inventor 2013 installed on the same computer, it is essential that you install Update 1 for Inventor 2013 SP1.1 to correct issues with running Autodesk Inventor 2013 with .NET 4.5.

·Sometimes preinstalled .Net 4.5 SP1 has something wrong which may cause TrueView installation failure. Typically, you see error 1935 in the error dialog. To solve this, you can remove .Net 4.5 SP1 from Add/Remove panel and then reinstall Inventor .

·If the installer prevents you from installing one or more products, pause the cursor over the red 'prohibited' circle beside the product name to get more information.

·A new application tool, Autodesk Application Manager, is installed with Inventor. After you install Inventor, the Autodesk Privacy Policy displays. Accept the terms and then close the dialog box. The application is used for detecting Autodesk Service Pack and Updates later.

·Autodesk Application Manager launches after deployment creation is finshed. Click Add Updates. In the Autodesk Privacy dialog box, accept the terms, and then close the dialog box. The Application Manager will launch for detecting Autodesk Service Pack and Updates later.

·Ensure the Inventor install path does not contain double-byte characters when installing Inventor on a single-byte operation system.

·Installation may be slow due to Microsoft security update KB2918614. If so, the installation will require 2-3 hours to complete. For more information, please refer to Microsoft support page.

·If you are using Inventor with a local language, please also ensure the language pack for Autodesk Inventor Electrical Catalog Browser is installed so that the Electrical Catalog Browser can work properly.

·A Warning 1946 dialog, referring to the Task Scheduler, may be seen during installation. This is a benign Microsoft warning and can be safely ignored. Simply click OK on the dialog.

·When installing on Microsoft Windows 8 or 8.1, the installation of the Microsoft .NET 3.5 component will fail if the installation machine is bound to a domain where the group policy restrictions block this component. You can refer to the following Microsoft page to solve this problem: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh506443.aspx

Uninstallation

·During uninstallation, if error 1910 displays, click OK to continue. Then delete the shortcut that remains on the desktop. This is a Microsoft issue. Additional issues can be viewed on the Microsoft tech page. There is no solution for these issues now.

Application Functionality

Inventor exports file formats for Global BOM, Parts Lists and Revision Tables.

In Inventor 2016, to export the following formats requires 32 or 64-bit Microsoft Excel to be installed on your computer.

·Microsoft Excel Workbook (*.xlsx)

·Microsoft Excel 97-2003 Workbook (*.xls)

To export the following database formats, Inventor uses the “Microsoft Access Database Engine”, which is part of Microsoft Office.
