@jacob.small  
But on my ‘control’ environment the Packages that are used are in the roaming folder.  
So i am unsure how to go about this.

Hypothetically.

I i would install Packages from within Dynamo on a network folder which i have read and write  
rights for and users only read rights, but use that path to get their Packages from would that  
solves the blocked file issue?

**EDIT**  
Nevermind. It seems i can’t change the `download to` folder.  
I really need ICT 😞.

My steps would be:

- From the control user, close Revit and go to `%appdata%Dynamo\Dynamo Revit\3.4`.
- Find the folder there named ‘packages’.
- Change it’s name.

After putting this on the side for a bit i decided to have a look into this again and i think i found the culprit. The network folder. After i zipped the Packages and i put them in a folder with less ‘restrictions’ everything seemed to work  
(using your steps 8, 11 and 12 @jacob.small) 😄
