All,
My company runs Solidworks 2013. I was recently given a different computer to use and have to do quite a bit of Solidworks modeling on it.
My issue is this: everytime I open Solidworks, I get the following popup to occur 22 times: "Could not load Solidworks DLL: GdtAnalysisSupport.dll,"
I have researched the issue and found that this is a Microsoft .Net 3.0 framework problem, but my computer is running a Microsoft .NET 4 framework. Does anyone have any other suggestions to get rid of this message? Though it does not impede my functions, it is extremely annoying to work with.
Best Regards,
John
The problem is probably due to the Windows update that went live in July, give the method below a try.
Standalone installs:
1. Click 'Start', click 'Run', type "regedit" in the 'Open' box, and then click 'OK'.
2. Locate and click the following subkey in the registry: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\Installer
Note: If this subkey does not exist, create it.
3. In the 'Edi't menu, point to 'New', and then click 'DWORD Value'.
4. For the DWORD name, type "RemappedElevatedProxiesPolicy", and then press 'Enter'.
5. Right-click "RemappedElevatedProxiesPolicy", and then click 'Modify'.
6. In the 'Value' data box, type 1, and then click 'OK'.
7. Run a Repair of your SOLIDWORKS Installation (S-050527)
8. After the application installs successfully, reset the 'RemappedElevatedProxiesPolicy' DWORD value to "0" to re-enable the security fix for KB 3072630.
Administrative Image installs:
1. Uninstall SOLIDWORKS from Programs and Features
2. Click 'Start', click 'Run', type "regedit" in the 'Open' box, and then click 'OK'.
