Where exactly does the "Look here for addIns" setting live?

Pretty much what it says on the tin.

I'd like to figure out where the folders that you enter here:

are stored by Pro to check.

I know that if this is set using the Pro.settingsConfig file, then that's where that lives. However, it's gotta get stored somewhere, even when not set by admin settings.

So, where is that?

Thanks!

I added a couple of Add-In folders through Pro and then searched the Registry for their paths as text. Pro created an Add-In Folders folder as shown in the screen capture. I was also able to create a new Value (folder path) that appeared in Pro. Perhaps this is what you are looking for.

ArcGIS Pro add-ins are stored in the following default location on the C: drive:

C:\Users\<username>\Documents\ArcGIS\AddIns\ArcGISPro

Replace <username> with your actual user name. This is where the add-in files are copied when you install them using the Esri ArcGIS Add-In Installation Utility.

Thanks for the reply, Robert.

However, that is not the question I’m asking.

As I understand it, Pro searches that folder you mentioned for adding to use on start up by default, but you can also add other folders for it to search in the AddIn Manager menu of Pro’s settings (see screenshot above).

When a folder is listed there, the addins found within are not copied to your Documents\ArcGIS\AddIns folder. Instead, upon launch, Pro looks for those addins in all those folders plus your addins folder and unpacks the necessary stuff to the AssemblyCache folder in AppData\Local\ArcGIS\ArcGISPro, the same way it does for normal adding that you’ve manually installed.

(that first “ArcGIS” may be “Esri”; I’m typing this from memory away from my computer)

So my question is not “What happens to an addin when you install it?”, it’s “Pro remembers a list of folders to check for adding every time it gets opened. Where is that list stored?”

Thanks!

Bingo. Thanks.

The vast majority of Pro's other settings are exposed in various files hidden around, so I didn't think to check the registry.
