    So on this first version of the Navisworks plugin, the installation currently only targets the 'Manage' version.
    However all is not lost and there is a workaround

    Go to
    C:\Program Files\Autodesk\Navisworks Manage 2021\Plugins
    (or the date version you have)

    Copy the 'com.unity.reflect.navisworks.UNIT' folder

    Paste it into the folder

    C:\Program Files\Autodesk\Navisworks Simulate 2021\Plugins
    (or the date version you have)

    Start up Navisworks Simulate and you will have the exporter all ready to go.

    I have submitted a request to support Simulate for our next release.

    Note, Navisworks Freedom does not support 'plugins'

    Hope it helps

    groovy.
    Did you guy found a trick to export textures from Navisworks ? I've not found any API documentation about exporting textures while UV can be exported when I wrote a Navisworks plugin.
    Is there a plan to support texture export ?
