Though, honestly, the performance isn't really all that bad on the Mac VM, but Parallels seems to be trying to shift to a yearly subscription model and, again, I am trying to avoid a money suck even when there are gaps in my consulting use as at a certain point the cost of all of this software will negate my earnings to the point it's not even worth doing business at all. I'm actually running Solidworks 2013 on Windows 7 inside of a Parallels Virtual Machine on a Mac right now, so I figure Microsoft native virtual machines can't be worse than that.
Installing solidworks 2005 on a windows 10 computer Patch#
Has anyone successfully run an older version of Solidworks on Windows 10 using compatibility mode? Is there some patch out there that makes this work and keep working? Are there some temp files I can periodically delete to make it work?īarring compatibility mode, how is virtual machine performance? Anyone running a Windows 7 virtual machine on Windows 10? If I upgrade to Windows 10 Pro, I can use Hyper-V (built-in Microsoft virtualization software) to run Windows 7, but I want to make sure the performance will be good before I go that route and would like to confirm it works properly at all. I reformatted my computer, reinstalled, and the same thing: worked for a few days, then got slow and crashed. It suddenly, out of nowhere, started loading very slowly and then crashed when I tried to open a file. I tried for a minute to use Solidworks in Windows 10 set to Windows 7 compatibility mode and it worked perfectly and then.didn't. I also don't want to downgrade my computer as Windows 7 is quickly getting left behind and I feel like it's not a proper long term solution. A new SW license/upgrade is out of the question as I don't do enough business to justify $4000 for a new version of Solidworks and even the $2000-$3000 during promotions is really pushing it. To better clarify, I purchased Solidworks 2013 for personal consulting/design work use a few years ago and it will not run natively on Windows 10.
