Pyrevit: Revit 2021.1.2 not showing as installed

[Strider11]

Describe the bug
I've tried installing versions 4.8.5 (signed) today and previously had tried v4.84 (signed and CLI). When I start Revit 2021, the pyRevit tab isn't there. It works great on 2020.2.3 though. I've tried multiple commands suggested in other issues and nothing has worked yet. My guess is it's not finding the install path correctly 'D:Program FilesAutodeskRevit 2021', but I'm not a programmer, so just a guess.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Install pyRevit_4.8.5_signed.exe
2. Launch Revit 2021
3. No pop-up, no pyRevit ribbon tab

Expected behavior
I expected the pyRevit tab to show in 2021, just as it does in 2020.

Take a look at this please and let me know if it fixes the issue

pyRevit already knows Revit 2021.1.2 so it is very odd that it is not listing it. Would you mind exporting this key Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\{7346B4A0-2100-0510-0000-705C0D862004} from your registry and sending it to me? Thanks!

Thank you, Ehsan. I had already tried the suggestions in the link, prior
to posting, but ran it all again anyway.

Attached is the registry export.

I don't see attachments when you reply to a github notification. Please send that to my email :D thank you!

I tried that as well, and it didn't work for me either.

I did reply to your email, not on Github. Should I send a new email?

[eirannejad]

Ok mine and your settings seem identical except for the build number

Last request. Would you mind running pyrevit revits --installed --debug and share the report log? This provides a detailed report of what pyrevit can see in the registry and what it is not seeing 2021

[Strider11]

Here is the current Log.
debug.txt

@Strider11 Okay I thought I had found a bug but Nope. Based on the log, it does not seem like your Revit is installed in a standard location

Debug: Product not found at expected path "C:\Program Files\Autodesk\Revit 2021"

👉 Could you check the path to 2021 Revit.exe?

To make this work you can manually edit the InstallLocation key under the registry path Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\{7346B4A0-2100-0510-0000-705C0D862004} to the actual installation path in my case C:\Program Files\Autodesk\Revit 2021\

@eirannejad Correct, my Revit is installed on the D: drive (larger HDD) rather than the C: drive (smaller SSD.)
Changing the path in the registry and re-running pyrevit attach master 277 --installed seems to have fixed it.
Thank you so much!!
