    promis-e Paths

    Document Information

    Document Type: TechNote

    Product(s): promis•e V8i & promis•e 2007 v3.0

    Version(s): All

    Original Author: Matt_P

    Overview

    This document describes many of the paths that recent versions of promis•e use.

    In the paths below, "promis-e V8i(M)" folders are for promis•e for MicroStation/PowerDraft, and "promis-e V8i(A)" should be substituted for "promis-e V8i(M)" when promis•e for AutoCAD is being used.

     

    Program folder

    This folder contains the basic executables and program libraries required to make promis•e run.  This path is specified during installation and cannot be altered afterward.

    promis•e V8i

    C:\Program Files\Bentley\promis-e

    promis•e 2007 v3.0

    C:\Program Files\ECT\promis-e

     

    Program data

    This folder contains the program related files that require permissions beyond what many users have for the program folder.  These files include setup.xml, ECADProject.mdb, and the Menu folder.  This path cannot be altered.

    promis-e Data folder

    This folder contains "content", such as catalogs, parts databases, templates, and projects, along with various options profiles and settings.  This folder is specified during installation but can be copied or moved afterward.  The paths on the promis-e Setup dialog would need to be updated with any changes to the location of this folder.
