Įditor's Note: This article was originally published in April 2018 and has been been updated for accuracy and comprehensiveness. To learn more about SOLIDWORKS CAD upgrades and updates, check our best practices video for prepping for an upgrade. If these steps don’t correct the problem, please contact our support team they would be more than happy to help get these issues.
SOLIDWORKS TOOLBOX SAVE UPGRADE
Test the toolbox after the upgrade to verify it’s working correctly. Choosing Next will restore the location of the network toolbox to SOLIDWORKS. So if you open an assembly with toolbox references, it will force them to open from the toolbox file that you have specified in tools->options->system options->Hole Wizard/Toolbox. In the following window, leave the default setting of Current user. In SOLIDWORKS 2011 a new option was included in within the toolbox options to always your specified toolbox folder as the default search location for toolbox files. Choose Restore Settings, navigate to the location the backup was stored, and choose Next. To fix this, launch the Copy Settings Wizard tool used earlier. After upgrading, SOLIDWORKS will still reference the incorrect toolbox and needs to be directed to the network toolbox. The upgrade should be able to complete without issue, referencing the local toolbox. Set the Toolbox save location In order to manage toolbox components as part of a library, the toolbox file save location needs to be set to correspond with the vault working folder location and a specific library location.
If the toolbox is supported nonlocally, check with GoEngineer and your CAD Administrator for PDM and IT if the toolbox points to a network drive.Ĭlick OK and close SOLIDWORKS and run the upgrade again. Note: If you do not have a local toolbox, contact technical support. If you changed the toolbox installation to match the year of installation, be sure to choose that toolbox location. If there are multiple toolboxes, they will be numbered. Change the directory so that it matches the directory shown.
SOLIDWORKS TOOLBOX SAVE INSTALL
SOLIDWORKS, by default, will install a toolbox at. Launch SOLIDWORKS, go to Tools > Options, under system options, find HoleWizard / Toolbox.įigure 6: Hole Wizard Location in SOLIDWORKSĬlick the ellipsis (.) to change the file location. The next step is to change the toolbox being referenced. Once the settings are configured, click Finish to create the backup file. The only setting that needs to be saved is the System Options however other settings can be saved as well. Start > SOLIDWORKS Tools 20xx > Copy Settings Wizard In the Start Menu, find Copy Settings Wizard. It is possible to upgrade the installation while referencing this local toolbox.
During most initial installations, SOLIDWORKS will install a local toolbox. If the toolbox is stored remotely, write permissions could be the cause of the problem.
