SOLIDWORKS 2018 Product Registration

Registration is a simple process that gives you access to features found in the SOLIDWORKS Customer Portal, such as downloads or the knowledge base.

Since registration is done via the SOLIDWORKS Customer Portal, this document also covers how to set up an account.

This is not a troubleshooting guide. If you have any technical issues with SOLIDWORKS, please contact  Hawk Ridge Systems Technical Support.
