Post From: Custom ACSIL .cpp files not appearing in Remote Build file list

Analysis > Build Advanced Custom Studies > Remote Build - Standard > Select Files, which when clicked shows a path of C:SierraChart\ACS_Source\. At the bottom of that screen there are two fields: File Name*.cpp and below that: File Type: Advanced Custom Studies Files (*.cpp: *.h). See screenshot below.

The 38 studies/files in the existing list from two days: from 2026-01-23 and 2026-04-21 and include ADSIL CustomChartBars_Example.cpp, ACSILDepthBars.h, ADSILSpreadsheetInteraction.cpp, AutomatedTradeManagementBySubgraph.cpp, CandleStickPatternNames.cpp, CandlestickPatternNames.h, OrderEntryStudies.cpp, etc.

Historically, the only files that show up are the .cpp files we have been working on, not "stuff" that has been created by SierraChart.

The following methodology is how we have built several different tools/Special Studies: Claude ai constructs the code, provides me with a download button, I download the .cpp file, I copy it and place it in C:\SierraChart\ACS_Source\. I then go to what is written in the first paragraph of this message and the .cpp file is found and the Build is executed. When the build shows Complete with no errors, the new study then shows up in the Add Custom Study folder as a .dll file. We have the file, which was built on my local desktop machine and is listed in the Special Studies list as .dll files on that machine. The .cpp file is in the VPS Source folder, but we cannot get it to move into the Advanced Custom Studies files list, even though the path is C:\SierraChart\ACS_Source\.
