Where those downloaded correctly? Can you reinstall again and check? What version and SP of SOLIDWORKS 2015 on the machine now?

Hi Ugur,

This maybe where the Windows Update KB3072630 is catching you out, unfortunately this update has caused some issues when SolidWorks is doing Installs. If the registry fix did not work, then the best cause of action is to access your Windows Updates, installed updates and remove this one (KB3072630). Once removed, remove SolidWorks from the machine and then reinstall - this should then include all the add ins as required, Providing your Serial number is premium as you say and there is not a problem with it. If this doesn't work contact your VAR.
