Upgrade Solidworks Toolbox
Did you recently upgrade SOLIDWORKS and PDM, and are seeing this error message? Then you have most likely not upgraded your Toolbox in PDM. This is an issue we regularly receive when a new SOLIDWORKS version is released and you have upgraded SOLIDWORKS and PDM. In the excitement of getting the latest edition, many forget to upgrade their Toolbox as well. This post will describe the process of upgrading your Toolbox in SOLIDWORKS PDM. Upgrading the Toolbox is performed as a part of a SOLIDWORKS upgrade, using the SOLIDWORKS Installation Manager. Because Toolbox is managed in a multiuser environment, only one user is required to upgrade the Toolbox in SOLIDWORKS PDM globally for all users.
Before you start the upgrade, you must prepare the Toolbox folder. Ensure that there is a full backup of the vault database and archive and make sure that the entire Toolbox folder is not checked out or in use by any current checked out assemblies. To upgrade Toolbox:. In Windows Explorer, log in to the vault as Admin. Right-click the Toolbox folder and click Get Latest Version to copy all Toolbox files and the toolbox database to the local cache. You must ensure that one of the following toolbox database file is present: – From SOLIDWORKS 2014 or earlier: vaultname Toolboxfoldername lang yourlangauge SWBrowser.mdb – From later versions of SOLIDWORKS: vaultname Toolboxfoldername lang yourlangauge swbrowser.sldedb.
