If the schemas folder is missing, empty, or contains damaged files, the Missing Schema Folder dialog displays. Repair/reinstall Revit LT, or replace the folder with the contents of the folder from a working Revit LT installation.
The schema folder contains files related to the processing of units in Revit LT. This folder must be present, and contain valid files in order for Revit LT to start properly. If this folder is missing, contains files not expected, or the files are damaged in some way, you will receive an error dialog and Revit LT will close. You must repair this condition in order to start Revit LT.
