IE8 and SolidWorks RSS news Task Pane issue (x64). The problem has been confirmed and been reported to development under SPR 480083 on x64 operating systems. It is caused a by conflict between Internet Explorer 8 and the News Feeds in the SolidWorks Taskpane. Until the issue can be addressed by development, it can be avoided with one of the following methods:1. Uninstall Internet Explorer 8 and install Internet Explorer 7 instead. SolidWorks will launch successfully afterwards. 2. Turn off the News Feeds. Since SolidWorks does not start in this state, the option will have to be disabled directly in the Windows registry. Please use caution while working in the registry. The option can be found in HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\SolidWorks\SolidWorks 2009\General. Find "Show Latest News feeds In task pane" and change its value from "1" to "0." 3. If installing SolidWorks for the first time on a computer, and no HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\SolidWorks\SolidWorks 2009\General key exists to modify, then download the attached registry file, and double click on it to automatically create the key disabled. You can find the current status of this issue by querying this SPR number in the Knowledge Base. Also see Solution Id: S-036457 for details. |
