Hello All
Thank you in advance.
After win10 clean install my "copy setting wizard" not working in the Solidworks Resources tab (right side) as well as other functions in the Solidworks tools area. Any ideas?
Here's what I did thus far.
I did a thorough cleaning of solidworks in the files, folders & register.
I can however access this function through the SW file/folders. I was to use this function without issues.

Best Regards
KenJG

Are you talking about the program not working at all or options are not restoring\saving out?

Have you tried launching "Copy settings wizard" without SW open?

Hello Scott,

1. When I click any of the options in the SW Tools Tab nothing happens, no error nothing pops up , Nada.
2. I can use the setting without SW open.

I'm thinking from reading other posts that I might have a "rights" to access folder/files issue, not sure. Even if I log on admin, same issue.

I'm at work and I updated the comp I'm on now to win10 (upgrade for free) but the one at home would not upgrade so I installed win10 clean. Don't know if that helps or not.

Thanks for your reply.

You might try and reset your SW registry and see if that fixes it.
See faq559-507.

If you have PDM installed you will have to go one more level deeper in the tree and rename "Solidworks 2019" versus "Solidworks" as the FAQ describes.
