Default Template Folder

Strange new behavior when creating new files.  In both the startup screen and and open file, when I access the Create New File dialog box, it is looking in the wrong path for the template files, in fact a path that no longer exists, so I am getting no templates to choose from.  

 

The Applications Options setting is pointing to the correct path.

 

Oddly, when I use the Create New Part, Create New Assembly, or Creat New Presentation shortcut, a template file does open, I don't know from where.  When I use Create New Drawing shortcut, I get the error that the template file does not exist, listing the path shown in the Create New File DB.

 

Any ideas?  Maybe this will inspite me to install the Inventor 17 I have sitting on my desk.

Hi,

 

Thanks for the image files they pointed out the issue. You have your defaults set to the correct directory but if you look at the directory the templates are coming from it's for Inventor 11. 

 

Please check your project file and under Folder Options check to see where the templates are pointed to. You may need to correct this path. Please remember the project file path will override the application options.

 

Give this a try and let us know,
