Having trouble finding Revit® Family Folders? This could be why:
From Revit, you see that the path to finding Revit Family Folders is:
- Windows2_OS (C:)
- ProgramData
- Autodesk
- Libraries
- US Imperial
- Libraries
- Autodesk
- ProgramData
But what if you go to Windows2_OS and ProgramData isn’t visible?
This usually means that the folder is hidden. It’s an easy fix. Here are the steps:
- From the Start menu, search for “Folder Options”
- Select the “View” tab
- Click “Show hidden files, folders, and drives”
- Click “Apply” and “OK”
Now, the folders in your C drive will show ProgramData.
