.igs files

Niyazi,

Welcome to the forum.

After opening up a session of Solidworks, go to file>open

then under the file type iges.

Thank You,

I have been fighting this for an hour.

You can also simply drag and drop the IGS file (or any other format recognized by SW) onto the graphics area.

Same problem here! Anything but a very small .igs file crashes solidworks. This is on i7 machines with 12gb ram
