assembly/drawing crashing solidworks
assembly/drawing crashing solidworks
(OP)
I have this assembly file, roughly 4mb and a drawing for it roughly 11mb. I had the assembly open this morning and made some changes to it and saved it. Now when I try to open the drawing OR the assembly solidworks crashes. It seems like during loading its getting to certain part files and then just craps out. I did add an assembly to this assembly; however, I am able to open those files all day long. Everything else seems to open and work just fine. Any thoughts before I go ahead and start from scratch?

Not trying to be a wise *!&%.
I have had SolidWorks get stupid and stuck on an action. A computer restart has often solved the issue. Sometimes it is that simple.
Lots of people leave their computers running all the time, never restarting SolidWorks or the computer. Need to do that to clear out the space dust.
I restart my computer every night before I go home. I rarely have issues with SolidWorks.

One of our engineers does that to. He is the one that often has some nagging issues with his models. I just shake my head everytime he starts complaining about his computer and/or SolidWorks. He is his own worst enemy.
