To start I would like to note that I'm just the IT guy and my experience with MicroStation is limited to none. Where do I need to put my files so they will populate the drop-down list in the CONNECT configuration assistant tool? I launch Connect, click file, click settings, click configuration assistant, configuration assistant opens, but the select V8i workspace drop-down is empty. There is no information provided in the program about where the program is looking or which files it is looking for. V8i was installed with all of the default values (IE file paths), so if the tool is looking in a default location it should see the files. Is there a way to export the workspaces from V8i SS2 to a format that Connect edition can handle? V8i SS2 is the version we have available. We don't have access to newer versions of V8i. We do have access to the older V8 but I doubt that will help in this situation.
The Configuration Assistant allows you to select the V8i Workspace location.
The configuration of V8i Workspaces varies between organisations so if possible speak with your administrator responsible, but this article may be of help locating this, alternatively you could create a debug file

Hello and thank you for responding. I should have added a screenshot to be more clear. In the first attached screenshot you can see the config assistant window and the drop down that should list the workspaces is blank. The documentation and the link you provided both say the files by default should in C:/ProgramData/Bentley/ and I have copied files to that location as seen in the second screenshot but the drop down is still blank. The issue is Config assistant does not seem to recognize that the files are there.
The v8i stuff should be here (or similar)
C:\ProgramData\Bentley\MicroStation V8i (SELECTseries)\WorkSpace

Yes, the files are in that location but they are not being shown by the configuration assistant. I have inserted a screenshot.
