Is there any special instructions ...??
Just download the required installation manager and it'll automatically update to latest one.
where do i route the setup.exe file after the download? it wants me to tell it where to unzip. will it run properly from the default "my documents" folder?
Just place it in a directory where you know where it is and unzip it there. It will automatically create a folder
within that folder you selected to dump the SP files.
Start > All Programs > SolidWorks Installation Program, then confirm all defaults and sit back and watch.
