Revit 2009 Keyboard Shortcuts with Vista

[mailshanegross]

Hello all,

I am working on testing the mock 64 bit version of Revit on Vista. I have the program loaded on 2 different machines, one Vista and one XP.

In the XP version, the Keyboard Shortcuts file was at: C:\Program Files\Revit Structure 2009\Program. I copied over this version with my old Revit 2008 shortcuts file. This seems to be working just fine.

In the Vista version, there was no default keyboard shortcuts file. I saved my older version of keyboard shortcuts to: C:\Program Files (x86)\Revit Structure 2009\Program

My problem is that the Vista version does not appear to be reading my text file. It seems to be pulling the information from some other location (the default shortcuts are still there). Is there anyway to see the path of the Keyboard Shortcuts.txt file? My guess is that my IT department has screwed the program up by placing it in a folder called Program Files (x86). Anyone have any other ideas?

Thanks,
Shane

Vista's security measures write protect much of the program files directory so it stores a temporary version of modified files to this location:

C:\Users\<USERNAME>\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files (x86)\Revit Structure 2009\Program

There is nothing wrong with the install location, it is installed to the (x86) folder automatically as revit is only 32bit...

Although I am not on Vista, I have some users that are. Where should the shortucts file be located? In C:\Program Files (x86)\Revit Structure 2009\Program?
