I recently got back into LDraw after not using it for several years.  MLCad is my preferred editor.  I installed all the latest programs and parts with no issues.  I then tried to add in my custom parts from before and modified the MLCad.ini file to scan that folder, but none of them show up after Scanning Parts or using mklist.exe.  I then tried to but them in the unofficial folder and again they did not show up.  If I put them in the main parts folder they do.  Am I missing something?  I have tried this on both Windows 11 and Windows 10.  Any help would be greatly apricated.
Did you edit the MLCad.ini in the right location? The file has moved to:

C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Ing. Michael Lachmann\MLCad

PERFECT!!!  Thanks so much. I searched and searched online but could not find this information.  What I did find was to put in the application folder.

Again, thanks for your quick and expert answer.
