Solidworks 2009 File Icons
Solidworks 2009 File Icons
(OP)
I know there has been much discussion about this in the past but due to a recent hard drive failure my Solidworks 2009 installation has been reinstalled and is back to SP0. Unfortunately we no longer have support.
Now when part/drawing/assembly files are saved the icon is the generic yellow blocks. The icons used to show a file preview. If I set the folder option to thumbnails it generates a preview only if the icons haven't been generated then I can switch the folder options to icon view and they stay (until reboot).
I know there is a fix for this, I had to do it in the past, I just can't remember what actually worked. I have the show thumbnail box checked in Solidworks.
Thank you in advance. I have attached a picture of what I am talking about.
