A file handy tool designed to help you perform various management tasks with SolidWorks files
SolidWorks Explorer is a document manager application developed to let you perform such tasks as replace, rename and copy SolidWorks files. You can show a document's references, search for documents using a variety of criteria, and list all the places where a document is used. Renamed files are still available to those documents that reference them.
You can use SolidWorks Explorer with or without the SolidWorks application and with or without PDMWorks Workgroup added in.
SolidWorks Explorer is not a PDM (Product Data Management) tool; however, it does perform many useful tasks and simplifies many file management processes. You can add in The PDMWorks Workgroup Contributor application to run as a standalone application inside SolidWorks Explorer.
