The next trick will require some trial and error by end user. Acadarch2017 will now run without any “Acwebrowser.exe” processes running. Always backup these files in case of problems. In the properties Dialogue change all permissions on “Acwebrowser.exe” to deny and read only for all users. Remove all files and folders except the “Acwebrowser.exe” file. Open the “Acwebrowser.exe” folder, copy all files and folders to a zip folder for backup. ****** BACKUP registry and all folders, perhaps even licence folders******

If this is not needed by the user then there will be a way to disable all “Acwebrowser.exe” processes and limit the acwebrowser.exe” processes to TWO…. It does however run the pretty ‘welcome screen’ where you will find the ‘new drawing tab’ and the 360 stuff.

= i wont defend autocad, but an objective look at this tells you that a program can only get better if the developer knows what needs improving, for example if one was to log and collect data on the most common ‘help searches’ one would know what functions people find the most difficult, and may be able to improve their usability somehow.ī] “Acwebrowser.exe” is not needed to open and run Autocad Architecture.

in all likelyhood, this is all it does, plus collect some metadata which autodesk would use to improve end user experience. I cannot find a way to start the program without the splash, ie, run the splash in the background, or load the program without the splash. seems to be a ‘general’ gui program, which shows the ‘start-up / splash screen’, ie.,: the organisation of the program as it is loading. why “Acwebrowser.exe” and “acwebrowser.exe”. “acwebrowser.exe” is best found by opening task manager and right click+select ‘show process’ and in the ‘process tab’ right click+select “open file location” “Acwebrowser.exe” can be found in the “program files\autocad~\Acad2017~\Acwebbrowser” folder. I will refer to them as “Acwebrowser.exe” and “acwebrowser.exe”. In autocad Architecture 2017, There are two ‘ACWEBBROWSER.EXE’ EXECUTABLES:

My method is a little brutal, and may require some trial and error depending on install and user. In this post i will also tell how i have reduced the install size of my Autocad architecture from 4.5~ to 2.1gb~… !!!!!! NOTE i have disabled info-center in the registry, and did not install Autocad ‘desktop app’ or ‘Autodesk 360’ I have managed to get my “Acwebrowser.exe” and “acwebrowser.exe” down from seven running processes to just two.

In case they ‘delete’ the post, i will post the text here too:Ī saga as no-one seems to be able to come up with a solution - as to why acwebrowser and Acwebrowser are necessary, what do they actually do and how to disable them. When you're ready, follow me and we'll get started.Hi, I am sharing my post with you, i give instructions on how to disable acwebbrowser and how to strip autocad back to what is needed / necessary… If you are someone who has always wanted to learn AutoCAD from the ground up, or if you're someone who uses AutoCAD to review drawings provided by others, this title is perfect for you. Finally, we'll explore how to print drawings to a measurable scale so they can easily be used as exhibits or for documenting the progress of a design. We'll learn the basics of drawing navigation and how to manage multiple open drawings at one time. I'll show you how to use shortcuts to get quick access to your drawings. Next, we'll turn our attention to file management. We'll explore basic command usage and learn how to get answers to questions using AutoCAD's comprehensive help feature. Along the way, I'll show you how the tools are organized and how to optimize large interface items, like pallets, on screen. In this first title of the series, we'll begin our AutoCAD journey by taking a tour of the interface. Welcome to AutoCAD Essentials: 01 Interface and Drawing Management.
