There are a couple of settings that should stop that from happening. (Use at your own risk.) Yep, we considered this, but the idea of "all or nothing" seems extreme. And I don't think IT was very cool with the idea , nor do I want to start having to manage every driver for the sake of dea...

No Toolbar layout, Keyboard shortcuts, Mouse gestures, menu customizations, or Saved views are deployed. I just went through the available System Options in the tool. I never came back to this to answer, but yeah it appears I'm able to import most things just fine, but menu customizations and toolb...

Does anyone else have constant issue with graphics drivers rolling back or updating seemingly on their own? This seems to happen to all users across varying PC configs.

The "user" settings are stored in the registry under "current user". I suppose there is a way to set this for a "default" user on the image such that new profiles copy them but I've never been able to figure that out, or I didn't have the authorization. Instead I have ...

This isn't something I've ever done before, but I tried to setup an admin image for a specific machine that would load a specific SOLIDWORKS settings file every time a user starts up SOLIDWORKS. No settings are being loaded and it's just running SW as if it's brand new. I've tried existing users tha...
