Project file configuration (How to remove the "Included file" path)

GabiWearing — Wed, 13 Jul 2022 06:52:56 GMT

Hi all you Inventor specialists,

I messed up my project file by adding another project file in the "Include file" box but it is wrong and I don't know how I can delete it.

I did this outside of inventor in the project editor.

Can anyone tell me how to remove the included file please?

The reason I have done this is that I created a new project with a different content library (DOBBIE-PROJECT because I wanted to add some material to bolts and change some sizes.

The problem is now that all my assembly files where I have previously used bolts have a lost their connection to their original system content center files.

I was hoping to be able to swap all of the old bolts with the ones in the new content center which is now read/write but it takes forever to open the assembly files because it searches our whole network drive for the bolts I had used before all these changes.

I wonder if there is a better way to get the search time down.

Any help is much appreciated, thank you

Switch to Default project then you can edit the other Project

Right click on it and pick Delete:

Note that you cannot edit a project if there are any files open.

Thank you, I knew it would be easy... just didn't know.
