Hi @Anonymous

Could you re-download Revit 2016 from our Virtual Agent (click on Download Links, choose product and version)? Then try the installation again.

What do you mean by "doesn't let me flip between layers?" Have you got Revit actually running or can you not boot the program?

I can load the program, but once I try to do anything on the program I can't go between floors or structural layers, etc. I can do anything I want in the page that first loads when the program loads a construction template, but once I try to change to another it does not allow me to do anything, and I end up having to force close the program.

Sorry, your terminology was confusing me, (there are no layers in Revit).
Have you tried opening a different template or a blank template... What about a family? On the Recent page, does anythig else work...

The installation of revit might be fine but not the content...

Perhaps it's a graphics display driver problem.

Please provide your graphics card specs and if you've downloaded the certified drivers as recommended by Autodesk to run with Revit:

This is the Student version I am having trouble with the download. I don't see a link to download that from the virtual agent.

There isn't a "Student Version"....you can get a "Student License" to apply to the trial that will give you a 3 years as long as you qualify with the Autodesk Education Community.

Downloading Revit from the Virtual Agent is the same for everyone, it's the license that makes the difference.

BTW, starting with the Construction Template has a lot of features missing.  I suggest the Architectural Template.  Mechanical if you are MEP.
