btw, for those wanting to do the hotfix.. this is the message… you’ll need to uninstall the hotfix to update later.
Wow… Feels almost like a troll job lol
And this is the icing on the troll cake…
These guys can’t win for losing! <()>
..wow,.. a Limited Life is such a waste of time? 
So anyone updated to 5.1? Is it safe? lol
*trying to bite my tongue so as not to say : “i told you so”.
..is it safe?.. well, let’s try!
OJ Simpson?
C’mon guys, Dassault has assured us that they are focused on One and Two, so much so that they’ve stopped allowing it in the Top Ten List…
So the top ten list starts with 3?
hmm?.. maybe the wrong gif for you Mike… here you go. (cough)
Two points:
- The SolidWorks team is under the DS umbrella and I would surmise that this is more deleterious overall.
- Yes, other companies can put out better, but since SW is a product, it must be compared to products in the same stage of product life.
If I were to guess, I’d say SW is past the hump…it’s harvest time.
the scary thing of whty i’m still on SW2018 SP5 is that to jump to SW 2021 SP5.1 requires that i Update the License server from Windows Server 2012 to a minimum of 2016, and work doesn’t want to, so I stuck in the dark ages here. This is all to do with being able to update PDM standard as well. so it is a pile of work for one guy to do!! So is 2021 really got any big advantages?
well,.. it’s “1” more than 20. ><

But really you would want to look at what’s new in 2019/2020/2021. And… then look at what of ‘what’s new’ actually works properly
The enhanced graphics works (on most cards) on 2020. Don’t even think of trying it on 2019!
I’m on 2020 SP5, and enhanced graphics is still problematic for me. I’ve tested it with both an Nvidia and AMD, and it has issues with both.
I’m using SW 2021, and I have it turned off. It might work with it turned on, but I haven’t bothered to check.
