Hi Everyone,

I'm trying to install Solidworks 2018. However, the Installation Manager software won't automatically download the software and instead prompts me to manually download instead. Anyway, the Installer redirects me to a Solidworks webpage for downloading the program elements (see attached photo). Every link I click on is dud and I can't seem to download anything.

Any ideas for getting around this? :(

Thanks, Peter

Do you have SW 2017 installed?

I used the instructions from this thread to upgrade from 2017 to 2018. Read it all. I think I started at the link in post #6.

Note that the download is large. If the download does get interrupted, the next time you try, it will start from where it got stopped.
