Thanks for reading this edition of SOLIDWORKS Support News. To solve this problem, see Solution Id: S-073462.
This problem is due to instability in certain NVIDIA® graphics drivers during graphically intensive functions of SOLIDWORKS® Flow Simulation.
In a SOLIDWORKS® Flow Simulation animation with the NVIDIA® 375.63 or 376.84 graphics driver, how do I resolve slow performance or a crash that occurs following the NVIDIA OpenGL Driver message ‘A TDR has been detected’? To do so, see the example and follow the steps in Solution Id: S-072940. In SOLIDWORKS 2017, you can only create a ’Trace Path’ for the ‘Center of Mass’ of a component. It is not possible to create a ‘Trace Path’ for the ‘Center of Mass’ of an assembly or sub assembly.įor information about an existing enhancement request for this functionality, see SPR 1029979. In a Motion Analysis study, how do I create a ‘Trace Path’ for the ‘Center of Mass’ of a component or assembly? For the API to be able to access the file vault, the Web2 application pool must run under a Windows® user profile with sufficient access to the local registry and application data folder. The SOLIDWORKS® PDM Web2 application on Internet Information Services (IIS) will use the SOLIDWORKS PDM client Application Program Interface (API) to access file vault information. How do I configure the SOLIDWORKS® PDM Web2 application pool to use a local non-administrative Windows® user account for the application pool identity? To do so, you must be able to establish a secure connection to the network that hosts the SOLIDWORK®S PDM Web2 application. It is possible to use the browser on a mobile device to access or manage a SOLIDWORKS PDM vault. Is it possible to use a mobile device to access or manage a SOLIDWORKS® PDM vault?
Why does the SOLIDWORKS® 2017 SP4 software stop responding when I close files?Īn issue with the SOLIDWORKS® 2017 SP4 software may cause SOLIDWORKS to become unresponsive when closing documents with add-ins loaded, such as, the SOLIDWORKS PDM Client or possibly 3rd party add-ins.įor a hotfix and other solutions, see Solution Id: S-073387. Noteworthy Solutions from the SOLIDWORKS Knowledge Base Next month, Brian will discuss the topic of Shell strategies.
Service Pack News SOLIDWORKS 2017 SP4.1 is available for download Once all Associated Handles have been stopped, it should be possible to delete the folder.Then, refresh the section using the refresh button to confirm there should now be no process holding on to the folder.Right click on the ‘Associated Handle’ > and chose ‘End Process’ They are preventing the folder from being deleted. This will carry out the search for ‘Associated Handles’ (processes) In the ‘Search Handles’ field, paste the path to the folder name and click the refresh button (as shown below).Expand the ‘Associated Handles’ section.Once the ‘Resource Monitor’ is opened click on the ‘CPU’ tab.Launch the ‘Resource Monitor’ by clicking the button shown above.When clicking ‘Yes’ on the above a dialog is displayed stating the delete action can’t be completed because the folder or file is open in another program.In the example, a folder (containing a temporarily cached SWPDM plugin) needs to be deleted in order to test the reload of the plugin file in SOLIDWORKS PDM.
The Windows Microsoft® ‘Resource Monitor’ be used to end a process currently holding on to a file (or folder) you are trying to delete. But you don’t have to be stuck and forced to reboot your computer to that file or folder gets released. Have you ever been unable to delete a file or folder because it was open in another program?
