Location Contents
%APPDATA%\Performance BIM\Performance AV\ Settings (settings.json, geometry.json), the licence key, logs, capture records, queued reports and problem reports. See Data and Privacy
%PROGRAMDATA%\Performance BIM\Performance AV\ The PAV-Origin and generic speaker families, loaded on demand
%PROGRAMDATA%\Autodesk\Revit\Addins\<version>\ The application, installed for all users, one set per Revit version
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\PerformanceBIM\PerformanceAV Trial state and the diagnostic-reporting answer. Retained on uninstall
The Revit model Each venue's settings, stored in the model so that they travel with it

Exports are written to the folder set per venue in Settings → Project Info. A venue with no folder set writes to the Default CAD export folder set in Settings → Application Settings. Where that is blank, it writes to an AcousticExport folder beside the Revit model, or to Documents\Performance AV Exports for a model that has not been saved.

Uninstalling leaves all of the above in place. To remove the application data, delete the %APPDATA% folder and the registry key.
