After temporarily moving our company server contents to a cloud server and then moving them back, certain dynamo packages are no longer being loaded. I’ve tried reinstalling the packages, moving the contents to a new folder path, and I cannot get them to load. The attached image shows the ones that are actually loading, and the ones that I have installed. Anyone have a solution for this?
I would suggest you check the logs because it will indicate which packages have not been loaded and possibly why.
To access the logger: Hover your mouse over the bottom of dynamo at the red line location in the below image then drag it up after the mouse icon has changed to a double black arrow.
Once here have a read up the lines to find the packages in question that are not loaded, and hopefully it will highlight why.

I’m getting 2 different messages for the packages that won’t load.
Exception encountered scanning the package directory at F:\REVIT PROJECTS\Dynamo\DYNAMO 2.0 SCRIPTS\PACKAGES\packages\archi-lab.net

almost surely the 0x80131515 code means the dll is blocked.
which makes sense since you moved them to a cloud server and then downloaded them (I am assuming) windows likes to blocks dlls from other machines / the web.
I checked the DLL files and none of them appear to be blocked. I even deleted a couple of the packages and tried to reinstall them to a local path and I’m still having the same issue.
Check with your IT guys.
any solution regarding this topic i am facing same issue in revit 2024 version
Perhaps you are loading a Dynamo 3.0 package instead of a Dynamo 2.0 package?
Check your Dynamo log and confirm the package versions you are working with are 2.0 compliant. If that doesn’t work, start a new topic as this is 5 years old and so the data here is not relevant as you don’t appear to have a cloud server causing the backup.
i am using 2.19 dynamo version in both system
sure i will create new topic regarding this

I’ve had the issue recently and it seems to be related to blocked .dll files from your local package folder. You can either unblock them manually (which might take a lot of time) or just talk to your sys admin. In our case, it was related to some settings in the group policy he had adjusted recently… this might also be useful: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wq6YSh8as6Q

Other than that, there’s also a simple way to bulk unblock them directly. You should just open Windows Power Shell, type the following:
Get-ChildItem -Path “C:\Users\Username\AppData\Roaming\Dynamo\Dynamo revit” -Recurse | Unblock-File
and hit Enter
