#Solidworks toolbox location update#
To fix this you need to update the Toolbox database, browse to SOLIDWORKS installation folder, typically “ C:\Program Files\SOLIDWORKS Corp\SOLIDWORKS“, and then to “ Toolbox\data utilities” right click on “ UpdateBrowserDatabase.exe” and select “ Run as administrator”.Ĭlick on “…” button to browse for the file “ swbrowser.sldedb” located normally in “ C:\SOLIDWORKS Data\lang\english“. The default Toolbox location is set up to save on your local C:\drive, with the name SOLIDWORKS Data. You will commonly experience this with network shared Toolbox setups.
The issue occurs due to the right Toolbox location is not “pointing to” during the SOLIDWORKS installation process and is missed during the upgrade process. Therefore, because it is desirable to have all components in a given assembly stored in the same location, the above strategy has been adopted. After SOLIDWORKS is updated to a newer service pack, you may find that there is a problem with SOLIDWORKS Toolbox with a message stating that the Toolbox database is “…not the expected version”.
