Zoom extents autocad 2012

I know of solidworks being able to do that but that's not an autodesk product and i think it would take me a lot of time to find out how to get a free licence for it if i were able in the first place. I'm using a students licence right now and i can get any autodesk product for educational purposes. Go to Solution. Solved by JDMather.

Started fresh and I didnt migrate any previouse settings since they were all uninstalled. I opened up a drawing and the zoom extents wasn't working then I set the indexctl to "2" in the drawing I was in and the zoom extents started working again.
