When you first open solidworks and click new part and your primary planes show up so that you can click on the plane you want and start a sketch.

I've tried all the basic fixes like...

1. Under View> Hide/Show> make sure you do not have "hide all types" selected
2. Also Under View> Hide/Show> be sure you have "Planes" selected
3. You may also need to find the plane you would like to see in the Feature Manager Design Tree (for instance the Front Plane)> RMB> Choose the "Show" icon in the incontext menu (it will look like an eye)

None of these fix my problem. Is there a more advance setting somewhere that needs to be resolved?
