Resetting the plugin
After updating Navisworks there could be problems with the installation of the Catenda navisworks plugin.
To reset the plugin, please follow the following steps:
Please change first in the Windows folder options to show hidden files and folders
Then we will find Navisworks application settings from the C:\Users\username\AppData\Local folder. They can be under the Autodesk_Inc or/and Autodesk_Ltd folders
Navisworks settings are located in folders which begin with “Roamer.exe_Url…“
We can reset those settings by deleting Roamer.exe_Url… folder including subfolders and files
To check which plugins the settings belongs to:
Next level indicates the version of the Navisworks e.g. 19 is for Navisworks 2022 version, 18 for 2021 version and so on
Under that folder we can find the actual configuration file user.config which can be opened with text editor. Please note! It is better to delete whole
path from the Roamer.exe_Url level than try to remove individual plugins by using the text editor.
