I wanted to get more into Building Maker - hence decided to install the tutorials. Downloaded the imperial files, installed per the readme, and when I reboot and restart Revit, I get this. Any suggestions?

To be clear, the topics show up in the help browser, but no content.

1) make a training file folder C:>Program Files>autodesk revit architecture 2010>trainingfiles

2) download the tutorial files and dataset files from autodesk to that file


3)right click the zipped file, (winzip "extract to here" or what program you use for this)

4) the file: TutorialsArchitectureImpENU.chm properties dialog box needs to be opened, and the security block unchecked

You need to unzip the tutorials and datasets in the training file, not on the desk top. There is at least one other post on this..I believe in October.

Thanks - I had everything unzipped to the proper location. The clue that made everything work was the right click on the .chm file in Windows Explorer and clicking the "unblock" button. This was in Windows XP Home.
