Developer Name | SolidWorks Corporation |
Operating System | Windows |
SolidWorks is a professional 3D design software application. It offers many advanced modeling functions and drawing tools. SolidWorks can be used for designing solid models, welding constructions, or surface models. SolidWorks also supports technical documentation tools. Additionally, the program features a tool for visualizing projects.
The primary purpose of our website is to provide the user with a list of software programs that support a particular file extension, as well as that help to convert them to another format. SolidWorks supports 47 different file extensions, that's why it was found in our database. The following tables provide information about the association of SolidWorks with file extensions. If the SolidWorks program can be used to convert the file format to another one, such information will also be provided.
This information is especially useful when looking for a way to open a specific file. If you already have SolidWorks installed on your computer, you can check which file extensions it supports and look for the data you need in this specific format (or to what format you should convert the data so that you can open them in the SolidWorks).
By far the most safe way is to download SolidWorks directly from the developers's website. If you are going to download the SolidWorks from a website that offers a database of downloadable software, you have to reckon with the fact that when you install it on your computer, you will also install the unwanted extras. Please, pay special attention to this.
File extensions are not normally displayed to users. To change this, go to Control Panel, select Appearance and Personalization and Folder Options. Next, select the View and find the option "Hide extensions for known file types". The option should be deselected (cleared) and confirmed with OK.
