Per the recent "Digital Currency" newsletter issued by Bentely - 13 October 2022. there was an article about Bentley Configuration Explorer and its availability.
i have downloaded this and looking to use it, however it appears that you can only run the configuration review against workspaces / worksets within the standard Bentley deploy location - C:\ProgramData\Bentley\MicroStation CONNECT Edition\Configuration\WorkSpaces.
How do you get this to work for a configured location outside of the standard delivery location ? or is this not possible ?
Many companies run their configurations outside of the above location so would make sense that you could navigate to this location within the Configuration Explorer tool
Hi Stephen,I was able to get this to work with the following product versions:MicroStation CONNECT Edition 10.17.01.58Configuration Explorer CONNECT Edition 10.0.0.11
Here are my steps:1. Create custom configuration on network drive. In my case D:/CustomConfiguration2. Open ConfigurationSetup.cfg with Notepad located in C:\ProgramData\Bentley\MicroStation CONNECT Edition\Configuration3. Add following syntax at the end of the file and save. _USTN_CUSTOM_CONFIGURATION = D:/CustomConfiguration/_USTN_CONFIGURATION = ${_USTN_CUSTOM_CONFIGURATION}Close the file.4. Open Configuration Explorer, add MicroStation from the Application Manager in the Tools tab5. Select Process Configuration and your custom configuration with WorkSpaces/WorkSets should display.
Hi,
the "configuration explorer" uses the " ConfigurationSetup.cfg" located in ...ProgramData/.... configuration;
now with MSu17 there is a possibility to use several configurations - the configuration explorer can NOT handle this - an update is neededis this update planned and when could a working version be distributed?
we sure need this tool to handle with configuration variables

Will inquire with development on any planned updates. Any announcement on a new update should be made on our announcement forum.
If I now start the config manager, the wrong workset list is read,I have different workspaces, but only the last listed is loaded,if I change the workspace, the workset list is not changing any moreso I can not load the correct variables to examine the configurationworking with the imported debugging *.txt file give too less possibilitiesI really need an update for the configuration explorer
