Tech Note - Revit Installed In Abnormal Location

How to ensure Deep Space Scheduler can find Revit if you have installed it in a different location

Steps (Windows):

  1. Close Revit (and anything Autodesk-related).

  2. Backup / remove the existing C:\Program Files\Autodesk\Revit 2025\ folder if it exists:

    • If it exists, rename it to something like Revit 2025.bak so you don’t lose anything.

  3. Open Command Prompt as Administrator.

  4. Run the symbolic link command:

     
    mklink /D "C:\Program Files\Autodesk\Revit 2025" "R:\Autodesk\Revit 2025"
    • /D = directory symlink.

    • First path = where the addin expects Revit.

    • Second path = where Revit is actually installed.

  5. Verify:

    • Navigate in File Explorer to C:\Program Files\Autodesk\Revit 2025\ → you should see the contents of R:\Autodesk\Revit 2025\.

    • Run the addin and check if it loads correctly.
