Command Aliases

I can no longer use my command aliases, know I have to write the complete command, for example "L" was enough for the line command, now I have to spell "Line". So what happened and how can I fix it?

the ACAD disk has a recovery option I believe, I suggest you use that option.

Maybe your installation is looking in the wrong place for these files...
