Quick Add-In, 2014 to 2016 Migration needed?

Anonymous

Can someone post up what is required to get 2014 custom add-ins loaded into 2016? Just starting our migration and I'm finding that the old locations don't exist and the new locations (or at least what I think are the new locations) don't seem to work.

 

Also, I believe that add-ins from VS2013 should function in 2016, is this true? If not, I have 2015 available, would that work?

Solved with a simple c drive search, guess I'm getting lazy in my old age.

 

The .addin goes here

C:\ProgramData\Autodesk\Inventor 2016\Addins\

 

not here

C:\Program Files\Autodesk\ApplicationPlugins\

This location pops up in quite a few searches on the issues but didn't do jack for me.

 

The .dll still goes here

C:\Program Files\Autodesk\Inventor 2016\Bin\

 

 

First time use I get a warning asking if I really want to run this addin. First time I've seen that.
