Hello,

I have a question regarding building VTK examples.

 ![01](https://discourse.vtk.org/uploads/default/original/2X/2/2051603ea20bff145086a88d6dce6efada124c8f.png)

I checked the `VTK_BUILD_EXAMPLES` in CMake and proceeded with the build.

However, after the build, when I checked `cmake-bin/Examples/VTKExamples.sln`, I couldn’t find any examples there.

Where can I run the built examples?

Thank you.

Hello,

Please, try to find the executables under `<source_dir>\build\bin\release`.

For those with MacOS or Linux, the executables will be under `<source_dir>/build/bin`.

best,
