File being saved in a library folder.

[garysmith7338]

I managed to change a setting to where my files are being saved in a library folderand I can't edit them. I don't wish to continue with this nonsense. I want to be able to edit the files. I am not using a vault but still get a message that the file I am trying to open is not signed out to me. How did I manage to mess my settings up this badly. I don't remember changing any of my settings. Help. Thanks Gary

edit your project file and remove that folder from being listed in the "libraries" section of the project file.

I am having the issue as well.
I have went to the "library" section under edit projects, but the file folder within is red and I am unable to remove that folder from being listed.
Ideas?

May I add this started to happen when I Imported a component from Revit '13

These are the steps I did to resolve my issue.
