When I open a particular file, I see the message A PGP File is Loaded! (Why is MicroStation surprised — what's that exclamation mark for?)
It's discussed in MicroStation help. Help says that it slows the loading of a DGN file. What help doesn't tell me is how to stop loading the PGP file — I don't use AutoCAD and don't need those AutoCAD abbreviated key-ins.
I'd be thrilled if anyone could tell me why that message has started to appear.
any chance dwgsettings.ma is included in your startup app? Per help, that would be one of the reason why.

Thanks for the suggestion. Unfortunately, that's not the answer.

This is a result in a change in behaviour from previous versions, now In Update 15 a PGP file is provided with the installation of MicroStation and pointed to via the MS_DWG_PGPFILE variable located within the mstrans.cfg file.
(In previous versions the PGP file would be available if the user had ACAD installed or the PGP file was provided & configured)
Whilst this message can be ignored, If not using AutoCAD abbreviated key-ins defined in the PGP file, an administrator can unset the value of the MS_DWG_PGPFILE variable. For example by setting MS_DWG_PGPFILE=Undefined at Organizational level.
