Hello! I'm Michele Cammisa
and by this brief session,
following some requests,
I'd like to show you how to solve
a common problem with SolidWorks:
the best way to restore
the SolidWorks files lost previews.
This kind of problem
doesn't depend on SolidWorks.
I'm going to show you all that
trying to open a document in SolidWorks.
I see, on the right,
not the related preview
but the standard enlarged component icon.
The same happens
if I try to access
by "Windows Explorer".
Then I can check that SolidWorks
offers a view option
but, however, referring only
to the icons.
The problem depends on Windows
The solution is quite easy.
Let's open "Windows Explorer"
and by a right click on "Computer"
the "Properties" window appears.
Here, click on "System perfomance"
in the lower left, and then I can see
"Adjust Visual Effects" in the upper left corner
and here
we find the solution!
We have just to check on
"Show thumbnails instead of icons" option
Now if we go back to our design
by SolidWorks or Windows Explorer
we can see on the right
our document in preview.
Well, the session is at the end
Like always, I hope you like it
and see you soon with other
interesting and useful tutorial!
