user_files
The WB protects this directory and ensures that it is
managed and archived appropriately.
Files from separate applications that are associated
with this project can be safely stored in this directory.
CAD data (imported geometry data) should be stored
here, especially if you intend to transfer the project to
another computer.
When the project is reopened and the CAD data is not
saved in user_files WB will prompt you to locate the file:
From the View Menu, select Files.
Right click on the relevant file in the list and select Repair
filename.xxx.
Browse to the file in the user_files folder.
The new path will be saved with the project.
