When AutoCAD starts or loads a new drawing, the following cryptic error/warning message is displayed:
; error: Unknown exception occurred
; warning: unwind skipped on unknown exception
*Cancel*
This problem is caused by a corrupt or locked CUI (or CUIX) file. It may be the main ACAD.CUI file or one of the partial menu files (Express Tools, Custom.cui, etc.). Replace the corrupted menu file - either manually from a backup (or original media) or by right-clicking on the CUI name in the CUI dialog.
