The installer that ran when you downloaded this app/plug-in from Autodesk App Store will start installing the app/plug-in. OR, simply double-click the downloaded installer to install the app/plugin.

You can unload the plugin without uninstalling it by unchecking the "Loaded/Unloaded" check box associated with the plugin in the Autodesk Inventor Add-In Manager. You may have to restart Inventor to completely unload the application.

To uninstall this plug-in, exit the Autodesk product if you are currently running it, simply rerun the installer, and select the "Uninstall" button. OR, you can uninstall it from 'Control Panel/Programs and Features' (Windows 7/8.1/10), just as you would uninstall any other application from your system.

When operating in the "Tube and Pipe" environment and an autosave event occurs, the assembly may revert to an invisible state. If this happens the assembly will need to be opened again. There have not been any reports of data loss.

When running Inventor 2024 and earlier in conjunction with another .net core addin, only the first add-in will load. The add-ins must be built in .net framework in order to load more than one in earlier versions of Inventor. If needed, install version 2.3.5.2 from https://shorturl.at/vFHRW. Copy the contents to the C:\ProgramData\Autodesk\ApplicationPlugins\FlyingGarden_AutoSave.bundle\Contents folder overwriting the contents.
