DriveWorks Solo Tech Tip: Easily Move or Distribute a DriveWorks Solo Project

Creating a DriveWorks Solo Project Template File is a great way to move or distribute a DriveWorks Solo Project.

A Project Template File (.driveprots) is a DriveWorks Solo Project that contains the data for a Project to run. These files include all the data associated with a DriveWorks Solo Project including SOLIDWORKS files, DriveWorks files, and any other files required.

Follow these 3 easy steps to create a DriveWorks Solo Project Template File:

Step 1

Ensure all the required files are in a folder named
MyProjectName.
