Catia V5 automatic backup directory

Hello

Where is the Catia V5 Autosave directory

Hello,  the directory is located in the location defined by the CATTemp environment  variable .

The latter can be found in the environment text file used to launch your CATIA session. ( e.g. CATIA. V5-6R2017.B27.txt)

By default you will find  this path:

CATTemp=CSIDL_LOCAL_APPDATA\DassaultSystemes\CATTemp

which corresponds  on a PC to:

C:\Users\your usernames\AppData\Local\DassaultSystemes\CATTemp

--> In the subfolder named CNext01.roll  you will find the temporary files that are used to recover data in case of premature termination of CATIA session.

Kind regards

Sylvain
