- Users can log into their Autodesk accounts and navigate to "All Products and Services" to find Revit. Rather than clicking "Install", users should click "View Details" and find the "Libraries" to download the desired content.
- Once the download is complete, users can start the installation process by double clicking the downloaded file. The installer will then extract the file and begin setting up the Revit content. Upon completion, all Revit content will be available for use.

If we have a fresh installation of Autodesk Revit, we might notice that we're missing the Revit content. For example, if we go to Component, Place Component, and Load a Family, we'll notice that the content is missing. In fact, there is a Revit family that says, are you looking for content? Go to www.autodesk.com. So let's do that.
We'll start with this bulletin on Autodesk Support. It tells us that Revit content starting in 2025 is available through the Autodesk account. We go to our account page, log in.
We go to All Products and Services, search for Revit. Here we find Revit. We're not going to click the Install button.
Instead, we click View Details. Here in the Details page, we see all the available downloads. We want to find the Libraries.
We click the Libraries button. If we're looking for the English content, one way to find it quickly is to sort by file size. The US English content for Revit is one of the larger files.

We click the Download button. This is going to take a moment, but it's going to download the installer for all of that Revit content. We'll give it a moment.
When the download completes, we'll notice the Revit CPENU file show up in our Downloads folder. We'll double-click that. This will extract the file and begin the installation process.
If prompted, we can allow Autodesk to make changes on our device, and then the installer will begin to set up the Revit content for us. Once extracted, we click the Install button and let the installation process run. Once complete, we'll mash that Finish button and return to Revit here in the Architecture tab, Component, place a component, load a family, and we'll now see all of that wonderful Revit content here ready for us to use.
