Creating new default templates

If the default templates are missing in the defined Default Template file location, then you can copy them over from another user’s system or easily get SOLIDWORKS to make new ones. Let’s see how SOLIDWORKS can easily make new ones.

1. Browse to the specified ProgramData default template location. If default templates exist in the folder already, make sure to click on one of the initial links.
2. Close ALL SOLIDWORKS applications.
3. Using the Windows Start menu or search bar, type RX and choose the correct RX.
4. Open SOLIDWORKS using the Safe Mode option that bypasses the Tools/Options settings.
5. Click the new file button. When you do, you will be prompted with a default Units and Dimension Standard selection window. Choose and click Okay.
6. Verify the default templates have been created in the correct folder location.
7. Close SOLIDWORKS completely, open SOLIDWORKS normally and you are off to the races!
