Revit 2022 Default Template Locations

Hey all,

Every time I open Revit 2022 I get a path invalid error for family templates. When I go into my settings the default path for family template files is \Templates, which is nowhere. I have the family templates downloaded, I can navigate to them under Program Data. When I browse to choose a new default path in the Options, it lets me change to the right path. Then if I close Revit and reopen it the default path for family template files goes back to \Templates. The same happens when I try to change any of the other default paths or add a project template.

Check the Permissions of the folder.  

 

...try closing Revit, change the extension of the Revit.INI file to ".old" and then relaunching Revit.  Revit will rebuild the INI file upon launching.   If all goes to hell in a handbasket, close Revit, delete the rebuild and change the extension of the old one back to ".INI".  In other words, don't fret.

Make sure your Revit.ini is not Read-only.

You can edit the path directly by editing the ini file:
