Determining the Current Versions of SOLIDWORKS PDM and the SOLIDWORKS Task Add-in

To ensure that you have the latest updates to the SOLIDWORKS Task Add-in, the SOLIDWORKS PDM Professional version and the SWTaskAddin version must be the same.

  1. To determine the SOLIDWORKS PDM version, in the SOLIDWORKS PDM administration tool, click Help > About SOLIDWORKS PDM Administration.
    The Client version field shows the version as:

    MV.S(BBBB)

    where:

    • MV is the major version. For example, 27 for 2019.
    • S is the service pack. For example, 3 = SP3.
    • BBBB is the build number. For example, 5014.
  2. To determine the version number of the installed SWTaskAddin:
    1. In the Windows notification area, right-click the SOLIDWORKS PDM icon and click Task Host Configuration.
    2. In the Task Host Configuration dialog box, select the vault for which you want to verify the SWTaskAddin version.
      The Version column displays the version in the following format:

      MVSSBBBB

      where:

      • MV is the major version.
      • SS is the service pack.
      • BBBB is the build number.
