Run Demos Locally
Demos in the Installation Folder
If you use the Unified Component Installer to install ASP.NET Core controls, you can find demo sources in the DevExpress product installation folder. The default path is C:\Users\Public\Public Documents\DevExpress Demos 26.1\Components\. You can run solutions from this folder or use the Demo Center to view demos.
Note
The demo project may throw an exception if the project path exceeds the maximum path length allowed on your device. In this case, move the demo project to a location with a shorter path or remove the path limit. For more information, see Enable Long Paths in Windows 10.
Follow the steps below to view demos in the Demo Center:
Launch the Demo Center in one of the following ways:
- Click the Demo Center 26.1 shortcut in Windows Start Menu.
- Open the DevExpress product installation folder and run the Demo Center. The default path is C:\Users\Public\Public Documents\DevExpress Demos 26.1\Components\Components\Bin\DevExpress.DemoCenter.v26.1.exe.

Click ASP.NET Core, then select a control to explore. The demos open in a browser.
