EXTRACTED KNOWLEDGE / HOW-TOFROM CONVERSATION

QUESTION / CONTEXTI only have 2 apps under my add ins in inventor 2023 where did the rest go

IMPORTANT GUIDANCE

  1. --
  2. Go to Tools → Add-Ins.
  3. Make sure “Show Hidden Add-Ins” (or “Show All Add-Ins”) is checked.
  4. Check those folders for `.addin` XML files (for example, `ApprenticeServer.addin`, `DesignDataManager.addin`, `iLogicAddinServer.addin`).
  5. Some antivirus or system cleaner may have deleted them.
  6. Or Inventor was recently repaired/re-installed and didn’t restore all add-ins.
  7. Close Inventor.
  8. Run Inventor Reset Settings (found in the Windows Start menu → Autodesk Inventor 2023 → “Reset Settings to Default”).
