Including an .sldsettings File in SOLIDWORKS Installations

To include an *.sldsettings file in your installation:

  1. Double click sldAdminOptionEditor.exe in the administrative image folder.
  2. In the Administration Image Option Editor, click Change.
  3. In the Client Installation Options section, do the following:
    1. Click Use a settings file exported from the SOLIDWORKS Settings Administrator.
    2. Click Edit Path and browse to the *.sldsettings file.
    You can create and apply different *.sldsettings file for different groups or machines.
  4. Deploy and install the SOLIDWORKS software.

After deployment, you can repeat step 2 to modify an existing *.sldsettings at any time. The SOLIDWORKS software reads the modified *.sldsettings the next time it starts.
