Saving animation to file: Schedule backup-how to clear?

Saving animation to file: Schedule backup-how to clear?

Saving animation to file: Schedule backup-how to clear?

(OP)
I have a model animation I am trying to save to a file.  The animation runs fine within Solidworks, but won't save.  When I follow the tutorial, it says to schedule it. I have done so, but the save screen does not return.  Repeating this continues to show 'you have already scheduled a file named...', so I try again with a new name and/or folder.  None of my animations have been saved to .avi files.  Is there a way to clear the backlog on the schedule so I can start over?  I don't if there is anything wrong with my system, but letting the program run overnight hasn't changed anything. I thought everything scheduled would run out and I could start over, but that hasn't happened.  I have saved animations before this, some months ago, without issues. I'm stuck on how to proceed.  What can I do from here?

RE: Saving animation to file: Schedule backup-how to clear?

Can you save the avi directly.
