You may configure GeoSuite Toolbox to use the same profile data as the shortcut for start from Desktop.
Right click ondesktop icon and choose Properties
Copy every thing after “acad.exe” - not the initial blank - comaper the picture below.
Open GeoSuite Toolbox and open Settings→Configuration file
Look for the parameter ACADOPT= under section [SYSTEM] - if there is no such parameter - cretae a new line and create it
Paste the copied data from the AutoCAD/Civil3D shortcut - be shure not to have any initial blank! The result may look as:
ACADOPT=/ld “C:\Program Files\Autodesk\AutoCAD 2017\\AecBase.dbx” /p “«C3D_Metric»” /product “C3D” /language “en-US”
Save the settings and restart GeoSuite Toolbox - You should now get the same profile settings as if You started from the desktop icon.
