SolidWorks eDrawings

  • ADMIN RESPONSE
    Oct 6, 2025

    The free download for eDrawings Viewer presents several challenges:

    • The installer prompts users for product registration and a verification code upon first launch. Compounding the issue, there are no officially documented switches or configuration options to suppress or skip the registration process.

    • This registration behavior is hardcoded and cannot be bypassed through command-line options, making the application unusable since you never actually get a verification code sent to you.

    Workarounds:

  • Attach files

    Hello, any news when eDrawings may be supported ?

    eDrawings is free and available here: https://www.edrawingsviewer.com/download-edrawings

    It would be so great to get this one available as we're pulling back full Solidwork installs from users and needing to proliferate eDrawings more in our environment. I'd prefer not to have to update it constantly.

I work in a law firm where we get lots of requests for eDrawings Viewer. We have it set to push through SCCM, but having the updates would really save us a lot of time repackaging it every time there's a new update.
