Dynamo sample folder location empty? How to set?

Hi folks,
I have installed Revit 2025.4 on two different machines. On both machines, when starting Dynamo, the Samples section is empty:


I don’t think Revit ships without sample scripts, does it?
I manually searched for a potential folder, and found this one:
C:\Program Files\Autodesk\Revit 2025\AddIns\DynamoForRevit\NodeHelpSharedDocs
However, I couldn’t find a way to set this folder, so Dynamo would conveniently only show me the .dyn files in that folder, and not all the other files.
Can someone help here?
Thanks,
GG

The actual samples are here:
C:\ProgramData\Autodesk\RVT 2025\Dynamo\Samples\en-US

Can you confirm if that is empty?

I’ve noticed some country folders have less in than others. Is this how it’s meant to be?

Hi John, good to “see” you here! :slight_smile: No, that directory is not empty. It contains folders, which contain sample scripts:


So it seems Dynamo is not pointing to that directory by default. Can I make Dynamo to use that directory manually, so I don’t always have to browse there?
Thanks,
Michael

Hmm, that might be a localization thing. I’ll check with @helena.wahlstrom

Let me find where that path is stored as it’s not in DynamoSettings.xml which is where I expected it to be.

Will wait here patiently. :wink: by the way, I need this to create learning materials for Dynamo. I find it pretty relevant to let the users (including me, as I am new to Revit) know where to find good sample scripts. :slight_smile:

I am actually looking right now. :grin:

Can you confirm is this menu works?

Also if you look at the console, it might give some more insight:
