Solidworks not linking to Toolbox folder

Hi,

Solidworks won't link to the folder where I have toolbox placed. It is looking in an old directory, why I don't know. It was working fine until recently and now it has gone nuts. When I try to redirect it to the folder where it is, it tells me it can't find the file even thought it is there and I have chosen that folder for Hole Wizard and Toolbox folder.

 

The folder it is in is C:\Program Files\Solidworks\SolidworksData\lang\english\swbrowser.mdb

 

I have included screenshots of the messages I am getting.

 

Any ideas?

 

Thanks

Lee

Correct Answer

Thanks Deepak for your reply.I figured it out. The only thing you have to select is the Drive the folder is on and the folder itself. In this case I selected F:\SolidworksData, that's it SW finds the file itself from there.

 

One other thing to point out for anyone with this problem. After installing the toolbox it wasn't visible ont the UI even though I had toolbox selected from the customise menu. If you go to View> Toolbars and select Task Pane and not Toolbox it will show up on the User Interface.

 

I hope this helps anyone with the same problem..

 

Thanks again for your reply.
