Power Hour: File Management — Understanding and Manipulating References

Stop Losing Time to Broken File Links

If you’ve ever opened an assembly only to be met with missing references, broken links, or files pointing to the wrong location — you’re not alone.

In this SOLIDWORKS Power Hour, we’ll uncover how file relationships truly work, from in-context parts to derived models and drawings. You’ll learn how to confidently manage references so you can prevent common errors, fix issues faster, and spend more time designing — not troubleshooting.
