  • Can Last Mile be unzipped and saved to a network drive or does it HAVE to be saved to C:\Program Files\Bentley\OpenRoads Designer CONNECT Edition\OpenRoadsDesigner\Assemblies\LastMileUtilities ?

    I would prefer to have this available as part of our networked resources without loading it onto everyone's individual computer.
