System Family Lost after purge

Hi Teacher,

 

I accidentally "Purge Unused" all the "Walls" category in my exercise file.

 

Could you please tell me how can I restore and get the Walls' "System Families" back, with all its default "Types",

I tried "Load Family" and go to the "Library Folder" in C drive, but there isn't a "Walls" folder,

I already installed the 1.9Gb Library Content Package from the Autodesk website.

I also tried the bottom right beside "Load Autodesk Family", but there isn't a "Walls" category either,

 

I am also wondering if there is a complete list of all the "System Famililes" under each "Built-in Categories" (that I can alway see pressing VG)

 

Thank you in advance!!

Use Transfer Project Standards to bring into your Project what you need from another Project.

Thank you so much!

 

It works!!!

 

Could you still explain why I cannot find the Walls "System Families" in the "library Folder", and 

If there is a standard list of all "System Families" by default.

 

Thank you so much for the education!

System families aren't families you can load in. They work in a set way, and can only be customized so much, namely by adding and defining layers.

System Families Vs. Loadable Families.

You could also load a file as group to load the desired families into your file

You made me curious about loading a file as group. I'm still not sure how it will help me in daily life... it looks like you import the whole project and it will be a group. and that brings in the system families. 

 

But I found this video that covers loading files as group a little bit
