When you have files in the local cache that contain references, the SOLIDWORKS PDM add-in warns you if another user moves or renames the references.
You receive the warning:
- When you have a SOLIDWORKS file open in read-only mode and another user moves or renames references.
In the Task Pane, the SOLIDWORKS PDM add-in adds 
next to the names of the modified files and the add-in displays a warning message.
Do the following:
- In the Task Pane, click the link to see details of the moved or renamed files.
- Close and re-open the files.
The SOLIDWORKS software repoints the references to the latest file location and displays a message that files have been renamed or moved and that the references have been updated.
- When another user has moved or renamed references for a SOLIDWORKS file that is in your local cache and you open the cached parent file.
The SOLIDWORKS software automatically updates the references and displays a message that files have been renamed or moved, and that the references have been updated.
