To select the Project and Site folder paths
1 On the Project and Site Folder Paths page, Project Folder box, click the Browse button to select the directory
that contains the Autodesk Navisworks settings specific to a project group.
2 In the Site Folder box, click the Browse button to select the directory that contains the Autodesk Navisworks
settings standard across the entire project site.
Choose a Language
You can select a different language for deployment instructions, and a language for product installations in the
same deployment process.
For example, if you need to provide Autodesk Navisworks to users in one or more languages different than your
own, you can download language packs from the installer that will allow you to deploy the product in the
languages you need to support.
NOTE Language packs can only be included in an administrative image during the creation of the deployment and
not during modification.
When you start the deployment process, the installer automatically determines your operating system language.
If a supported language is detected, your deployment pages are displayed in that language. If you want to change
that language, you can choose a different one from the installer language list on the opening page of the
Installation wizard.
