According to this SolidWorks doucumentation , when I use the API GetUserPreferenceStringValue(swUserPreferenceStringValue_e.swHoleWizardToolBoxFolder), I should get the toolbox folder.

Insted I'm getting a file (C:\SOLIDWORKS Data (5)\lang\english\swbrowser.sldedb).

How can I get the toolbox folder location ?

No one else has this question

Checked on 2014 and it works fine

Option Explicit
Dim swApp        As SldWorks.SldWorks

Sub main()
    Set swApp = Application.SldWorks
    Debug.Print swApp.GetUserPreferenceStringValue(swUserPreferenceStringValue_e.swHoleWizardToolBoxFolder)
End Sub

  Yes, you are right, its working in 2014, but unfortunately it's not working in 2015.

    Not sure if this is expected behavior or something broke down in the API as I'm seeing same results on 2015.
    
    Also from 2015 on wards the .mdb has been changed to .sldedb
