Issue:
The Revit Project Browser or Properties panel is missing, even though the UI is enabled under User Interface settings.
Causes:
The panels have likely moved off-screen. This issue often occurs when accessing Revit via remote desktop or due to sudden screen resolution changes.
Solution:
There are several ways to fix this issue:
If using multiple monitors:
- Unplug one of the monitors.
If the issue persists, try the following:
1. Open Windows Display settings.
2. Navigate to Multiple displays and change the settings to Duplicate these displays.
If the issue is not resolved, manually reset the user interface:
1. Navigate to the following folder in Windows:
%APPDATA%\Autodesk\Revit\Autodesk Revit {Product Name}\ENU
2. Rename UIState.dat file to UIState.OLD.
3. Go to:
%APPDATA%\Autodesk\Revit\Autodesk Revit {Product Name}
4. Rename the RevitUILayout.xml to RevitUILayout.old.
