InfoCenter

InfoCenter consists of a set of tools on the right side of the title bar that enable you to access many product-related information sources.

Depending on the Autodesk product and the configuration, these tools might differ. For example, in some products, the InfoCenter toolbar may also include a Sign In button for Autodesk 360 services or a link to the Autodesk Apps Store.

Note: InfoCenter uses Internet Explorer to support Autodesk LiveUpdate technology. Even if you set your default browser to something else, InfoCenter will always use Internet Explorer.
